Answer:
x = 7 and x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Factor</u>
x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0
(x - 7)(x + 1) = 0
<u>Step 2: Solve for x</u>
(x - 7)(x + 1) = 0
x - 7 = 0 and x + 1 = 0
x - 7 + 7 = 0 + 7 and x + 1 - 1 = 0 - 1
x = 7 and x = -1
Answer: x = 7 and x = -1
Answer:
The answer is 2 quarts!(:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 10.4
y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the triangles are similar
x/26 = 8/20 (side lengths must be proportional) cross multiply expressions
20x = 208 divide both sides by 20
x = 10.4
same goes for y
6/(6+y) = 8/20 cross multiply expressions
120 = 8y + 48 subtract 48 from both sides
72 = 8y divide both sides by 8
9 = y
I believe that would be 19!
