The first step is to quickly factor each of the five equations... to do so, find the right factors of the 3rd given number so that they add up in an equal number to the second number... 14 = -7 • -2 and -9 = -7 + -2
a^2 - 9a + 14 = 0
(a - 7) (a - 2)
a - 7 = 0, a = 7
a - 2 = 0, a = 2
{2,7}
a^2 + 9a + 14 = 0
(a + 7) (a + 2)
a + 7 = 0, a = -7
a + 2 = 0, a = -2
{-2, -7}
a^2 + 3a - 10 = 0
(a + 5) (a - 2)
a + 5 = 0, a = -5
a - 2 = 0, a = 2
{-5, 2}
a^2 - 5a - 14 = 0
(a - 7) (a + 2)
a - 7 = 0, a = 7
a + 2 = 0, a = -2
{-2, 7}

Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is all the side lengths added together
In this case, the
perimeter = x + (x+4) + (x+6) = 3x + 10
The correct answer is the first choice
