Answer:
D. None of the Above
Step-by-step explanation:
X^2+10x+16＝0
First, you find factors of 16.
1 x 16
2 x 8
4 x 4
Next, you find which of the factor pairs adds up to 10 (from the 10x). In this case, 2 x 8 because 2 times 8 is 16 and 2 plus 8 is 10.
Then, the equation will be written out as: (x+2) (x+8). Take those two equations and set them equal to 0, and then solve.
x+2＝0
-2 -2
x＝-2
x+8＝0
-8 -8
x＝-8
So, your answers are x＝-2 and x＝-8. You can check by plugging in those two numbers as x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 7x - 1/2x + 1/4 = 6
move x to one side move numbers to the other side
5x + 7x - 1/2 x = 6 - 1/4
add x and numbers
23/2x = 23/4
divide both side by 23/2
x = (23/4)/(23/2)
= 1/2
plug it in to check the answer
5/2 + 7/2 - 1/4 + 1/4 = 6
12/2 = 6
