X^2 + 5x - 24 = 0 How do I solve by factoring

Mathematics
1 answer:
tiny-mole [99]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -8 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor ax² + bx + c, use AC method.

a times c is 1 × -24 = -24.

Factors of ac (-24) that add up to b (5) are 8 and -3.

Divide by a and reduce: 8/1 and -3/1.

Therefore, the factors are x + 8 and x − 3.

x² + 5x − 24 = 0

(x + 8) (x − 3) = 0

x = -8 or 3

Please help me if u give me an answer could u also give me an explanation on why that’s the answer.

So it’s A

in all the other ones we can see that the angles in the same position as x and 75 are all equal

and because the question tells us that they are all structured the same with p and f being parallel we can assume x is equal to what’s congruent to it

there is a rule that states this

cap congruent angle postulate i believe

which states that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then corresponding angles are congruent

Li rode her bike 25% of the way to school. She rode 5 blocks. How many blocks does Li live from school?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

20 Blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would realize that 5 blocks is only 1/4 of the way to school because 1/4 is 25%

Next you should know that you just need to add 5 four times.

Lastly you would multiply 4*5=20

So therefore she lives 20 blocks from her school
