Answer:

{ - 12, 2 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 10x = 24

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(5)x + 25 = 24 + 25

(x + 5)² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 5 = ± \sqrt{49} = ± 7 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

x = - 5 ± 7

Thus

x = - 5 - 7 = - 12

x = - 5 + 7 = 2

Solution set is { - 12, 2 }

Let ​ f(x)=x+2 ​ and ​ g(x)=2x+1 ​ .
gogolik [260]
<h2>x= 0 and x= 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  g(x) = x+2  and   f(x) = 2^x+1

If f(x) = g(x)

⇔2^x+1 = x+2

⇔2^x= x +1

Only x= 1 and x=0 will be satisfy  the above equation.

If x= 1, it gives             and x=0 gives

2^1= 1+1                       2^0=0+1

⇔2=2                          ⇔1=1
