Answer:

x = - 7, x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 8x + 7 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 7) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)

The factors are + 7 and + 1 , since

7 × 1 = 7 and 7 + 1 = 8 , then

(x + 7)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 7 = 0 ⇒ x = - 7

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Answer:

x=-1,-7

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+8x+7=0 where a \neq 0 so a = 1 b = 8 c = 7

Quadratic Formula: x=-b\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

x=-8\frac{\sqrt{8^2-4(1)(7)} }{2(1)}

x=-8\frac{\sqrt{64-28} }{2}     Evaluate the exponent and multiply 4ac

x=-8\frac{\sqrt{36} }{2}          Subtract b^2 - 4ac and multiply 2a

x=-8\frac{\sqrt{6} }{2}           Solve for the sqrt root of 35

x = - 8 ± 6/2 =

x = - 8 + 6/2 = -1

x = - 8 - 6/2 = -7

Compute 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, and 48. Make a conjecture about the units digit of 4n where n is a positive integer. Use str
padilas [110]

Answer:

The conjecture is that the unit digit of 4^n = 4 when n = odd also 4^n = 6 when n = even

Step-by-step explanation:

4^1 = 4\\4^2 = 16\\4^3 = 64\\4^4 = 256 \\4^5 = 1024\\4^6 = 4096\\4^7 = 16384\\4^8 = 65536

The conjecture is that the unit digit of 4^n = 4 when n = odd also 4^n = 6 when n = even

To prove this conjecture

4^1 = 4\\4^2 = 16 unit digit = 6

hence the property is true for ; n = 1 and n = 2 and also for every odd and even number ( i.e. from 1  to 8 )
