Answer:
x = 3 or -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that for a quadratic equation in the form:
Ax² + Bx = C
we need to add (B/2)² to both sides of the equation to
In our case, we are given:
x² + 4x = 21
compared to the general equation above, B = 4, hence we need to add (4/2)² to both sides
x² + 4x = 21 (complete the square)
x² + 4x + (4/2)² = 21 + (4/2)²
x² + 4x + 2² = 21 + 2²
(x+ 2)² = 21 + 4
(x+ 2)² = 25 (take square root of both sides)
(x+2) = ±√25
(x+2) = ±5
hence
(x+2) = +5----> x = 5 - 2 = 3 (answer)
or
(x+2) = -5 ----> x = -5 - 2 = -7(answer)
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
Algebraic (or numeric) expression (also referred to as phrase) A mathematical expression (numeric/algebraic) is one or a group of mathematical symbols representing a number or quantity. It may include numbers, variables, constants, operators, and grouping symbols. One side of an equation is also an expression.
Answer:
-1(x-2)(x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
first we factor the negative:
-1 (x^2 - 5x +6 )
the next step, (if possible) is to guess 2 numbers that multiplied are 6
and added are -5
in this case is easy to see that those numbers are -2 and -3
The solution then is:
-1(x-2)(x-3)
If guessing the 2 numbers doesn't work, you need to complete the square
