3x-9-5x = -7
combine like terms -9-2x = -7
add 9 to both sides
-2x = 2
divide both sides by -2
x - 2/-2 = -1
x = -1
Let the number of geese be x.
Then number of goats is 22-x.
A goose has 2 legs, and a goat has 4.
There are a total of 82 legs.
So,
2x + 4(22-x) = 82
2x + 88 - 4x = 82
-2x = -6
x = 3
There are 3 geese and (22-3=) 19 goats.

Answer: 6(x²-4x+4-4)+1=0, 6(x-2)²-24+1=0, 6(x-2)²=23, x-2=±√(23/6), x=2±√(23/6)=2±1.95789, so x=3.95789 or 0.04211 approx. these are the zeros.
step by step explanation:
\boxed{\boxed{\dfrac{12+\sqrt{138}}{6},\ \dfrac{12-\sqrt{138}}{6}}}
Solution-
The quadratic function is,
6x^2-24x + 1
a = 6, b = -24, c = 1
x=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
=\dfrac{-(-24)\pm \sqrt{-24^2-4\cdot 6\cdot 1}}{2\cdot 6}
=\dfrac{24\pm \sqrt{576-24}}{12}
=\dfrac{24\pm \sqrt{552}}{12}
=\dfrac{24\pm 2\sqrt{138}}{12}
=\dfrac{12\pm \sqrt{138}}{6}
=\dfrac{12+\sqrt{138}}{6},\ \dfrac{12-\sqrt{138}}{6}
