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

 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. :)

\bf \textit{Law of Cosines}\\ \quad \\&#10;c^2 = {{ a}}^2+{{ b}}^2-(2{{ a}}{{ b}})cos(C)\implies &#10;c = \sqrt{{{ a}}^2+{{ b}}^2-(2{{ a}}{{ b}})cos(C)}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{so, let's find the missing side}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;c=\sqrt{2.7^2+3.4^2-2(2.7)(3.4)cos(40^o)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;c=\sqrt{4.78542402433556327368}\implies c\approx 2.187561204706182220

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

\bf \textit{Heron's Area Formula}\\\\&#10;A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;a=2.7\\&#10;b=3.4\\&#10;c\approx 2.19\\\\&#10;s=\cfrac{a+b+c}{2}&#10;\end{cases}

and that'd be the area of it

You have $60 and your sister has $120. You are saving $14 per week and your sister is saving $10 per week. How long will it be b
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

15 weeks

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
