Answer:
B. x = -6, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant on the left wants to be 1, the square of half the x-coefficient. We can get it to be that value by adding 8 to the equation.
x² +2x +1 = 25
(x +1)² = 25 . . . . . . . rewrite the left side as a square
x +1 = ±√25 = ±5 . . . . take the square root
x = -1 ±5 . . . . . . . . . subtract 1
x = -6 or x = 4
Hey there!

Formula for the area of a triangle is (1/2)bh.
Base of this triangle is 5, height is 4.
Image attached.
Plug values into the formula:
A = (1/2)(5)(4)
Simplify.
A = (1/2)(20)
A = 10
Area of the triangle is 10 units².
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The value of x in this equation is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 1 = 6x - 9
Subtract 6x on both sides.
-x - 1 = -9
Add 1 to both sides.
-x = -8
Divide by -1 on both sides.
x = 8
