Answer:

x= -7      x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 8x + 7 = 0

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to 7 and add to 8

7*1 = 7

7+1 = 8

(x+7)(x+1) =0

Using the zero product property

x+7 =0   x+1 = 0

x= -7      x = -1

Answer:

x =  - 1 \\ x =  - 7

Answer B is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  + 8x + 7  = 0\\  {x}^{2}  + 7x + x + 7  = 0\\ x(x + 7) + 1(x + 7) = 0 \\ (x + 1)(x + 7) = 0

x + 1 = 0 \\ x =  - 1

x + 7 = 0 \\ x =  - 7

hope this helps

good luck! have a nice day!

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The fraction computed shows that the number of his next 20 free-throw attempts that you expect Vijay to miss is 15.

<h3>How to solve the fraction?</h3>

From the information given, Vijay missed 12 out of his last 16 free throws. The fraction missed will be:

= 12/16

= 3/4

Therefore, the number of his next 20 free-throw attempts that you expect Vijay to miss will be:

= 3/4 × 20

= 15

If Lylah completes the square for f(x)=x^2-12x+7 in order to find the minimum, she must write f(x) in the general form f(x)=(x-a
Ber [7]
<span>f(x) = x^2 - 12x + 7

First, separate the first two terms from the constant

f(x) = (x^2 - 12x) + 7

Next, half the coefficient of second term in the parenthesis (12x) and square the result. Make sure to subtract outside the parenthesis what you added inside so that the equation stays equal.

f(x) = (x^2 - 12x + 36) + 7 - 36
f(x) = </span><span>(x^2 - 12x + 36) - 29

Now, just factor the trinomial inside the parenthesis, lemme know in a comment if you don't know how to do this and I'll explain.

f(x) = (x(x - 6) -6(x - 6)) - 29
f(x) = (x - 6)^2 - 29

The polynomial is now in vertex form, and the value of a, as you can see, is 6.
