This one is so easy that your brain refuses to accept it.
It's looking for a harder answer, but can't find it !
You're totally correct, as far you went. x² + 2x does = -1
Now add ' 1 ' to each side: x² + 2x + 1 = 0
Can you factor that quadratic ?
Can you mash it through the quadratic formula ?
Actually, it's the simplest possible perfect square.
x² + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)²
So the solutions of x² + 2x + 1 = 0 are both x = -1 .
Don't say anything.
I know it's embarrassing.
<u>(-2)+2=0, (-0.5)+0.5=0, and (-5)+5=0</u>
All those equations answers are 0, please mark me brainiest, and hope I helped!
The answer is $2.35
if u add $1.25 and $2.35 you get $3.60
then u multiply $3.60 by 5 which gives you 18
the answer is not there. first you take 950.00 and back out (subtract) the 40 dollar fee for a ladder rental which leaves 910.00 then divide the 910 by 35/hr and you get 26 hrs.
