Answer:x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Regroup terms.

8x-2=7x-98x−2=7x−9

2 Subtract 7x7x from both sides.

8x-2-7x=-98x−2−7x=−9

3 Simplify  8x-2-7x8x−2−7x  to  x-2x−2.

x-2=-9x−2=−9

4 Add 22 to both sides.

x=-9+2x=−9+2

5 Simplify  -9+2−9+2  to  -7−7.

x=-7x=−7

Answer:

x = - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 2 = -9 + 7x   (add 2 to both sides)

8x - 2 + 2 = -9 + 7x + 2

8x = 7x - 7           (subtract 7x from  both sides)

8x - 7x = 7x - 7 - 7x

x = - 7

What are the roots of the equation x2 - 5x + 6 = 0?
Alenkasestr [34]

The answer is

B. -2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation :

Given the expression

x²- 5x + 6 = 0

Firstly we need to find two numbers that when multiplied will give us the constant term 6, and when added will give us the 2nd term 5

These numbers are 3 and 2

Substituting 2x +3x for 5x

x²- (2x+3x)+ 6 = 0

x²-2x-3x+6=0

(x²-2x)-(3x+6)=0

Factoring we have

x(x-2)-3(x-2)=0

x-3=0, x-2=0

x=3, x= 2

How far apart are the foci of an ellipse with a major axis of 20 feet and a minor axis of 14 feet?
omeli [17]
The solution for this question is simple. First we need to divide both numbers by 2 which will give us 10 and 7. This is the equation x^2/10^2 + y^2/7^2 = 1sqrt(100-49) = 7.14 (the answer do not have a perfect square root)
Foci are 14.28 units apart
