Step-by-step explanation:
It seems here that they are asking us to solve for x
to do this we first need to factor
Since we can't factor this using the normal method we can instead do this
x^2 -4x-17=0
add 4 to both sides as it is a perfect square
x^2 - 4x + 4 = 17 +4
(x-2)^2 = sqrt 21
x-2 = ± 4.58
x -2 = 4.58 x-2 = -4.58
x= 6.58 x=-2.58
Or just say x=2+√21 or x=2−√21
Answer:
Integer and Rational Number
Step-by-step explanation:
Natural numbers are positive numbers starting at 1 and going onward. Since -8.0 is not a positive number, it is not a natural number.
Whole numbers are natural numbers and 0 altogether. -8 is not greater than zero or positive, so it is not a whole number.
A rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. Since q may be equal to 1, every integer is a rational number. -8.0 can also be written as -8/1, so it is a rational number and an integer, since every integer is a number over 1 and also a rational number.
