Answer:
Can you send me a picture I am confused
Step-by-step explanation:
The number is x
it is negative
the square is 28 more than 3 times itself
x²=28+3x
minus (28+3x)
x²-3x-28=0
factor
(x-7)(x+4)=0
set to zero
x-7=0
x=7
this is not the answer because we were told the number was negative
x+4=0
x=-4
correct
the number is -4
test
(-4)²=28+3(-4)
16=28-12
16=16
check
the number is -4
Let's solve this question by step by step.
Layout equation.
−104=−8(k+8)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−104=−8(k+8)
−104=(−8)(k)+(−8)(8)(Distribute)
−104=−8k+−64
−104=−8k−64
Step 2: Flip the equation.
−8k−64=−104
Step 3: Add 64 to both sides.
−8k−64+64=−104+64
−8k=−40
Step 4: Divide both sides by -8.
-8k/-8=-40/-8
The answer for this problem is k=5.
