Answer:

Not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x² - 6x - 7 = 0

The following equation can be solved correctly by factoring Thus,

x² - x + 7x - 7 = 0

x(x - 1) +7(x - 1) = 0

(x - 1)(x + 7) = 0

(x - 1) = 0

x - 1 = 0

x - 1 + 1 = 0 + 1

x = 1

Or

(x + 7) = 0

x + 7 = 0

x + 7 - 7 = 0 - 7

x = -7

Therefore, the solution would be x = 1 or x = -7

Lateena solution is therefore NOT CORRECT because she used a wrong method.

Answer:

The value of the ve = 9m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:


From the given formula, it can be conclude that this is evenly accelerated movement.

First I will rewrite given formula

vi = √ ve∧2 - 2ad   First we will square on both sides and get

vi∧2 = ve∧2 - 2ad Now we will add monom (+2ad) to both sides and get

vi∧2 + 2ad = ve∧2 -2ad + 2ad =>

ve∧2 = vi∧2 +2ad  Now we will rooted both sides and get

ve = √vi∧2 + 2ad  

Now we will replace given data vi=7m/sec, a=8m/s∧2 and d=2m in the last formula

ve= √7∧2 + 2*8*2 = √49+32 = √81 = 9

ve= 9m/sec

Good luck!!!
