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

brainliest appreciated

good luck! have a nice day!

HELP I DONT GET IT!!!For the system below solve using linear combinations method 2a+3b=1 and -2a+b=11
Maksim231197 [3]
Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3

now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4

PLEASE HELP!! Algebra 2 Review !!
Kamila [148]

Answer:

\frac{28-3i}{26}

Step-by-step explanation:

For #2, remember that i=\sqrt{-1}, so i^{2}=-1 Also, (a+b)(a-b), where a and b are any numbers, (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2. Now, to simplify, or radicalize, a number with surds in the denominator, you have to multiply the denominator by its conjugate. If there is a complex number a+bi, where a and b are any numbers, the conjugate is always a-bi. Lets apply these rules. The conjugate of 4+6i is 4-6i, so do this:

\frac{5+6i}{4+6i}=\frac{(5+6i)(4-6i)}{(4+6i)(4-6i)}=\frac{20+24i-30i+36}{16+36}=\frac{56-6i}{52}=\frac{2(28-3i)}{2(26)}=\frac{28-3i}{26}

Our answer is (28-3i)/(26)!
