Answer:

x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-4)= -21

x - 4 = -7( to get this divide both sides of the equation by 3 )

x = -7 + 4 ( add 4 to both sides of the equation)

x = -3 ( then add -7 and 4 to get -3)

So clearly x = -3

If x=8 what is the value of x(17-x)?
Svetlanka [38]
The highest power is 2.
Explanation:
Because x has a maximum power of 2, there will be 2 answers. if it were 3, there could be up to 3 answers, etc.
While solving this problem, you gather all terms on one side so the equation looks like
x
2
−
81
+
17
=
0
x
2
−
64
=
0
then factor
(
x
−
8
)
(
x
+
8
)
=
0
then, because any number times 0 equals 0, we know that one of the two parts in the parenthesis must be equal to 0, so
x
−
8
=
0
or
x
+
8
=
0
and so the two answers
x
=
8
,
−
8
come to be.

Margot is studying the yield of bushels of wheat in comparison to the amount of rainfall, in inches, that occurs. She finds the
crimeas [40]
Let y be the yield of bushels of wheat in comparison to the amount of rainfall
Let x be the amount of rainfall that occurs (in inches)

If the linear regression equation is y = 47.3 + 0.78x, then per inch of rainfall will yield an addition 0.78 bushels (plugging into x the additional inches of rainfall). 

Therefore, on the first inch of rainfall, y = 48.08. 
On the second inch of rainfall, y = 48.86.

And so on.
