Answer:
x = - 3 is extraneous
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 1 = x ( add 1 to both sides )
= x + 1 ( square both sides )
x + 7 = (x + 1)² ← distribute right side
x + 7 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )
0 = x² + x - 6 ← in standard form
0 = (x + 3)(x - 2) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
As a check
Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.
x = - 3 :
- 1 =
- 1 = 2 - 1 = 1 ≠ - 3
x = 2 :
- 1 =
- 1 = 3 - 1 = 2
x = 2 is a solution and x = - 3 is extraneous

the cost of the chocolate of 1 kg will be 30$
Answer:
300 programs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s work with cents to make this easier. We convert the $12 to cents, making 1200 cents
Let the number of copies Alden printed be x. His total printing cost would be x * 54 = 54x cents.
He sold at 75 cents each and still had left 100 copies. This means his total sale would be (x - 100)75
He lost $12 on the venture. This means his cost price minus his selling price is $12 since it’s a loss.
Computing this:
54x - 75(x - 100) = 1200
54x - 75x + 7500 = 1200
-21x = 1200 - 7500
-21x = -6,300
x = 6300/21 = 300 programs
