X^2 - 8x-9=0
D = b^2- 4*a*c = 64- 4* (-9) = 64+36=100 =10^2
X1 = (8-10)/2 = -1
X2= (8+10)/2= 9
C is your answer. 5x + 2 = 17
First let’s get them all in terms of x:
Box kites = 3x
Dragon kites = x + 2
Butterfly kites = x
Adding all those up:
x + 3x + x + 2 = 17
Combine like terms:
5x + 2 = 17
Answer:
11
