Answer:
x = - 7, x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 6x = 7
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 7 + 9
(x + 3)² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
= ± 4 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 4
x = - 3 - 4 = - 7
x = - 3 + 4 = 1
Solution set = { - 7, 1 }
Your answer is 5, you use the formula for a pyramid
Answer is:
x ≥ -18/5
2+4/9x ≥ 4+x
4/9x-x ≥4-2
4/9x-9/9x ≥2
- 5/9x ≥2 multiple by 9
-5x ≥2•9
-5x ≥18
x ≥ -5/18
