Answer:

x = - 7, x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 9x + 14 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 9)

The factors are + 7 and + 2, since

7 × 2 = 14 and 7 + 2 = 9, thus

(x + 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

konstantin123 [22]

The answer is B-about 18km

This is because you round 18.23 to 18km

then you round 13.94 to 14km

you add these rounded numbers together

you take it away from 50km

the answer would then me 18km

but it be ABOUT because that was only a rough estimate because it was rounded
