Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+2x-9=7

Combine like terms on each side of the equation

8x-9=7

Add 9 to each side

8x=16

Divide by 8 on each side

x=2

Simplifying

6x + -2x + -9 = 7

Reorder the terms:

-9 + 6x + -2x = 7

Combine like terms: 6x + -2x = 4x

-9 + 4x = 7

Solving

-9 + 4x = 7

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.

-9 + 9 + 4x = 7 + 9

Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 0

0 + 4x = 7 + 9

4x = 7 + 9

Combine like terms: 7 + 9 = 16

4x = 16

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 4

Simplifying

x = 4

What are the roots of the equation?<br><br> x^2+24=−11x<br><br> Enter your answers in the boxes.
docker41 [41]
<span>The <u>correct answers</u> are:

x=-3 and x=-8.

Explanation<span>:

We can first write this in standard form, ax</span></span>²<span><span>+bx+c=0. To do this, we will add 11x to both sides:
x</span></span>²<span><span>+24+11x=-11x+11x
x</span></span>²<span><span>+11x+24=0.

Now we can factor this. Look for factors of c, 24, that sum to b, 11. Factors of 24 are:
1 and 24 (sum 25)
2 and 12 (sum 14)
3 and 8 (sum 11)
4 and 6 (sum 10).

The factors we need are 3 and 8, since they sum to 11. This gives us factored form:
(x+3)(x+8)=0.

Using the zero product property, we know that in order to have a product of 0, one or both of the factors must be 0. This means we have:
x+3=0 or x+8=0.

Solving the first equation:
x+3-3=0-3
x=-3.

Solving the second equation:
x+8-8=0-8
x=-8.</span></span>

How does 1/8 divided by 1/4 equal 1/2?
photoshop1234 [79]
When you divide a fraction by a fraction, you're really just multiplying by a reciprocal. A reciprocal is the fraction flipped around.
So, 1/8 <span>÷ 1/4 is the same thing as 1/8 x 4/1
Now, you just multiply. 1 times 4 is 4. 8 times 1 is 8.
1/8 x 4/1=4/8
4/8 simplified is 1/2
So that is how 1/8</span><span>÷1/4=1/2</span>
