A negative plus a negative never equals a positive. It only equals a positive if you’re multiplying a negative times a negative .

Solve -7x^2+x+9=-6x quadratic formula

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

$-7x^2+x+9=-6x$

$-7x^2+x+9+6x=-6x+6x$

$-7x^2+7x+9=0$

$quadratic\: formula$

$x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{7^2-4\left(-7\right)\cdot \:9}}{2\left(-7\right)}$

$\sqrt{-7^{2} -4(-7)\times9} =\sqrt{301}$

$x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-7\pm \sqrt{301}}{2\left(-7\right)}$

$\frac{-7+\sqrt{301}}{2\left(-7\right)}$

$=\frac{-7+\sqrt{301}}{-2\cdot \:7}$

$=\frac{-7+\sqrt{301}}{-14}$

$\frac{-7-\sqrt{301}}{2\left(-7\right)}$

$=\frac{-7-\sqrt{301}}{-2\cdot \:7}$

$=\frac{-7-\sqrt{301}}{-14}$

$answer=\frac{7+\sqrt{301}}{14}$
