The solutions for ‘x’ in the given equation are – 3 and - 7
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given equation:

To find the ‘x’ value, try to factor, because in this case it works, it's fast. By using factor method, we get
(x + 3) (x + 7) = 0 (adding both value we get 10 and multiply as 21 as in equation and check with signs also while factoring)
x = - 3, -7
Verify above values by multiply both terms,
(x + 3) (x + 7) = 0

(so values obtained from factor method are correct)
Or, can use quadratic formula, for
, the solutions are given by:

In the given equation, a = 1, b = 10, c = 21, apply these in above formula


So,
When 
When 
Hence, the values for ‘x’ are - 3 and - 7
Answer:

Given



Required
The size of
of height 
First, we calculate the width using the following equivalent ratios

Express as fraction

Solve for x


Hence:
--- approximated
So, we have:


The size (diagonal) is then calculated using:

Answer:
Luther is wrong
Wade is right
Step-by-step explanation:
Luther's case 2^3 = 2x2x2 = 8
Wade's case 3^3 = 3 x 3 = 9
X = 50
Reason: Chord AB and Chord CD are equal.
Answer: 10.7 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
7,300 * (1 + 0.015)^x = 8,560 <=>
7,300 * 1.015^x = 8,560 <=>
1.015^x = 8,560 / 7,300 <=>
1.015^x = 1.1726 <=>
x = 10.694
To the nearest tenth:
x = 10.7 years
