Answer:

Lesser is -7

Step-by-step explanation:

x(x+4) = 21

Distribute

x^2 + 4x = 21

x^2 + 4x - 21 = 0

x^2 + 7x - 3x -21 = 0

(x+7)(x-3) = 0

x=-7, 3

Kat plays a surfing video game with a friend. Each player earns 50 points for each trick he performs, but loses 40 points each t
Dahasolnce [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of points got from 1 stunt = 50.

No. of points deducted from 1 fail = 40.

6 stunts and 9 falls were gained last week.

So, A/C the number of points earned =

(6×50)-(9×40)

= 300 - 360

= -60

Her score today is 3 times her score from last week so multiply by 3

= (-60) × 3

= -180

If it were multiplied by -3 instead of 3 it would be...

(-60) × (-3)

= 180

The difference would be that on multiplying with positive 3 she would be 180 points in the whole but multiplying with negative three means she is 180 points in the league.

The similarity is that that whole number is same but the symbol adds a difference and the absolute value would be same too.
