Answer:

Assuming that the x2 is x squared, B

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)(1) + 5(1) - 6 = 1 + 5 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

(-6)(-6) + 5(-6) - 6 = 36 - 30 - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve using factoring.

x²+5x-6=0

5 is the sum of the numbers, while -6 is their product.

Think: which two numbers add up to 5, but when multiplied, equal -6?

Those numbers are -1 and 6.

Now factor the polynomial:

(x-1)(x+6)=0

split into parts:

(x-1)=0

x-1=0

x=1

(x+6)=0

x+6=0

x=-6

So B

Hope this helps!

Can someone help with #5 above and provide steps? I will give brainliest!
Leona [35]

Answer:

  5461

Step-by-step explanation:

You can recognize this as the sum of 7 terms of a geometric series with first term 1 and common ratio 4.

That sum is given by ...

  S_n=a_1\cdot\dfrac{r^n-1}{r-1}

where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Filling in the numbers, we have ...

  S_7=1\cdot\dfrac{4^7-1}{4-1}=\dfrac{16384-1}{3}=5461

The sum is 5461.

Explain what role the negative sign plays in. -x^2=y
Darya [45]
It doesn't really have a role. This is because of the ^2, even if the number were to be a negative it would end up as a positive at the end.
