Answer:
x = 5 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function of x to be;
f(x) = (x-5)(x+2)/x+1
The value of x that will make the function zero can be calculated for by equating the given function to zero first to have;
If f(x) = 0, then;
(x-5)(x+2)/x+1 = 0
Cross multiplying;
(x-5)(x+2) = 0
(x-5) = 0 and x+2 = 0
x = 5 and x = -2
The value of x that will make the function zero is therefore 5 and -2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ABC and DEF are parallel lines. So, ∠ABE and ∠BED are co interior angles.
∠ABE + ∠BED = 180 {SUM OF CO INTERIOR ANGLE IS 180}
∠ABE+ 110.2 = 180
∠ABE = 180 - 110.2
∠ABE = 69.8
Now, ABC is straight line
∠ABE + ∠EBG + ∠CBG = 180
69.8 + ∠EBG + 34.8 = 180
104.6 + ∠EBG = 180
∠EBG = 180 - 104.6
∠EBG = 75.4
Again, DEF is straight line
∠DEB + ∠BEG + ∠GEF = 180
110.2 + ∠BEG + 25.6 = 180
∠BEG + 135.8 = 180
∠BEG = 180 - 135.8
∠BEG = 44.2
In triangle BEG,
∠BEG + x + ∠EBG = 180 { sum of all angles of triangle is 180}
44.2 + x + 75.4 = 180
x + 119.6 = 180
x = 180 - 119.6
x = 60.4
subsitute x = 6 into the lengths
3(6) -7
18 - 7
11cm
(6) + 5
11cm
therefore it is a square when x = 6 because the sides are all equal
-6x-7+8=19 and then add your like terms so it’s -6x+1=19 and then subtract one on both sides so it’s -6x=18 so x=-3
