so distribute 8(3-7x)=24-56x
143=7+24-56x
143=31-56x
minus 31 both sides
112=-56x
divide both sides by -56
-2=x
justify
plug it back
143=7+8(3-7x)
143=7+8(3-7(-2))
143=7+8(3-(-14))
143=7+8(3+14)
143=7+8(17)
143=7+136
143=143
true
x=-2
Answer:
2.29
Step-by-step explanation:
First determine the square root of 17.8
√17.8 = 4.22
second, determine the value of 
= 1.93
subtract 1.93 from 4.22
4.22 - 1.93 = 2.29

Easy!
You take the total number of students (55) then you remove the people that only like math and remove the people that only like English and remove the people that like none of them and what’s left is how many like both subjects.
55-15-18-5=17 students that like both subjects!
Answer:
f(2) = 12
f(x) = 7, x = -3, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>a)</u>
plug in x as 2
f(x) = 2^2 + 2(2) + 4
f(x) = 4 + 4 + 4
f(x) = 12
<u>b)</u>
replace f(x) with 7
7 = x^2 + 2x + 4
x^2 + 2x - 3 (move 7 to other side)
Factor
ac: -3x^2
b: 2x
split b into 3x, -x
(x^2 -x) + (3x - 3)
↓ ↓
x(x-1) + 3(x-1)
Factor: (x-1)(x+3) = 0
Solve using Zero Product Property:
x - 1 = 0, x + 3 = 0
x = 1, x = -3
