Solve by factoring.
x2 + 6x = - 9. Hint: This is a double root.
2 answers:
Subtract -9 from both sides.
x2+6x−(−9)=−9−(−9)
x2+6x+9=0
Factor left side of equation.
(x+3)(x+3)=0
Set factors equal to 0.
x+3=0 or x+3=0
x=−3
Answer:
x=−3
1
Move all terms to one side
x^2+6x+9=0
2
Rewrite x^2+6x+9 in the form a^2+2ab+b^2 , where a=x<span> and </span><span>b=3
x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2=0
</span>3
Use Square of Sum (a+b<span>)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2
</span><span><span><span><span>(x+3)</span><span><span>^2</span><span></span></span></span>=0
</span>
4
Take the square root of both sides
<span>x+3=0
</span>5
Subtract 3 from both sides
<span><span>x=−3
</span><span>
So, in short, your answer is x = - 3
I hope this helps, and have a great day. :)

or we can round it, to say c = 2.19, so hmm that's the missing side
now, we use Heron's Formula, which uses all 3 sides only

and that'd be the area of it
Answer:
12 inches = 1 foot

Think of sqrt(2) as a variable.
3x - x = 2x
If x = sqrt(2), then answer is 2sqrt(2)

The amount of money is 270
Step-by-step explanation:
You: 60 +14x
Sister: 120+10x
Set them equal to each other
60+14x = 120+10x
Subtract 10x from each side
60+4x= 120
Subtract 60 from each side
4x= 60
Divide by 4
4x/4 = 60/4
x = 15
15 weeks
The amount of money is 120+10*15 = 120+150 = 270
