Answer:

x = −3 and x = −2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 5x = −6

Add 6 to each side

x^2 + 5x+6 = −6+6

x^2 +5x+6 =0

Factor

What 2 number multiply to 6 and add to 5

3*2 =6

3+2 =5

(x+3)(x+2) =0

Using the zero product property

x+3 =0 x+2 =0

x+3-3=0-3 x+2-2=0-2

x=-3 x=-2

Prove that A is in the subset B if P(A) is in the subset P(B)

natima [27]

Show that if p(a) ⊂ p(b) then a ⊂ b.

<span>I will assume p() means power set. </span>

<span>proof: let x∈a, then {x} ∈ p(a) and so by hypothesis {x} ∈ p(b). However {x} could not be in p(b) unless x∈b. This shows that each element of a is an element of b and hence a ⊂ b.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
