Mathematics

Answer:

x = -4.5


Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute.

5x - 5 + 3 = 7x + 7

2. Combine like terms:

5x - 2 = 7x + 7

3. Subtract 5x from both sides.

-2 = 2x + 7.

4. Subtract 7 from both sides.

2x = -9.

5. Divide all sides by 2.

x = -4.5

Expand

5x - 5 + 3 = 7x + 7

Simplify 5x - 5 + 3 to 5x - 2

5x - 2 = 7x + 7

Subtract 5x from both sides

-2 = 7x + 7 - 5x

Simplify 7x + 7 - 5x to 2x + 7

-2 = 2x + 7

Subtract 7 from both sides

-2 - 7 = 2x

Simplify -2 - 7 to -9

-9 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

-9/2 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -9/2</u>

Find the value(s) of "k" that will cause the equation 4x^2 +kx + 4 to have one real solution.
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:  k = {8, -8}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In order for a quadratic equation to have exactly one solution, the discriminant must equal zero.       →        b² - 4ac = 0

  4x² + kx + 4 = 0

  ↓       ↓      ↓

a=4    b=k    c=4

b² - 4ac = 0

k² - 4(4)(4) = 0

k²             = 64

           k = √64

           k = ± 8
