Mathematics

The root is the x intercepts or the zeros of the problem

If I were to graph

(x-5)(x+4)=0

We need a number for x which makes this equation 0

The numbers are 5 or -4

These are the x intercepts of the parabola or roots

Answer:

The roots of a function are the x-intercepts. By definition, the y-coordinate of points lying on the x-axis is zero. Therefore, to find the roots of a quadratic function, we set f (x) = 0, and solve the equation, ax2 + bx + c = 0.

49–2ax –a^2–x^2 factor
vampirchik [111]

49–2ax –a^2–x^2

Extract the negative sign

= 49 - (a^2 +2ax +x^2)

Factor using a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = (a+b)^2

= 49 - (a+x)^2

Factor using a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)

= ( 7- (a + x)) * (7 + (a + x))

= ( 7- a - x) * (7 + a + x)
