Answer:
the "negative solution" is -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n.
Then n^2 - 24 = 5n
We rewrite this in standard quadratic form:
n^2 - 5n - 24 = 0
This factors as follows; (n + 3)(n - 8) = 0
The roots are n = -3 and n = 8. Thus, the "negative solution" is -3

Answer:
(b) 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of segment lengths to the near and far intersection with the circle is the same for both secants.
4(4+5) = 3(3+x) . . . . the above statement with numbers filled in
36 = 9 +3x . . . . . . . simplify
12 = 3 +x . . . . . . . . divide by 3
9 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3
C. 55%
The crusaders won 55% of 20 games
Answer:
k = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
-7(2 + k) = 7
Divide both sides by (-7)
2 + k = 7/-7
2 + k = -1
Subtract 2 form both sides
k = -1 - 2
k = -3
Answer:
x^3 +8x^2 +15x
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+5)(x+3)(x)
foil:
