First get them all on one side
add 7x+60 to both sides
0=x^2+17x+60
now factor
what 2 numbers mutltiply to get 60 and add to get 17?
5 and 12
0=(x+5)(x+12)
set each to zero
0=x+5
-5=x
0=x+12
-12=x
the factored form is (x+5)(x+12)=0
the solutions are x=-12 and -5
Answer:
The y-intercept is the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. Example (b) Graph 6x – 3y = 12. Instead of completing a table of values
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of internal angles in a triangle is equal to 180
58 + 47 + x = 180
105 + x = 180 subtract 105 from both sides
x = 75

Answer: a = ¹/₂ (4 + b)</h2>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
To solve for 'a' we have to make it the subject of the equation. Since there are two unknowns ('a' & 'b'), we won't get a numerical value of 'a', but an expression in terms of the second unknown 'b'.
Since 2a - b = 4 <em> [add 'b' to both sides]</em>
then 2a = 4 + b <em>[divide both sides by 2 = multiplying by ¹/₂]</em>
a = ¹/₂ (4 + b)
