(x - 4)(x - 4)=0. Then, (x - 4)=0 and (x - 4) =0.

In both cases, x is 4. Thus, you have a double real root: {4, 4}.

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4 =  

16 - x

(x - 4)2 = 16 - x

x2 - 8x + 16 = 16 - x

-x2 + 7x = 0

-(x(x - 7)) = 0

multiple both sides by -1:

x(x - 7) = 0

x = 0 or x = 7

Check solutions:

x = 7 ⇒

7 - 4 =  

16 - 7

3 =  

9

3 = 3

x = 7 is a solution

x = 0 ⇒

0 - 4 =  

16 - 0

-4 =  

16

-4 ≠ 4

x = 0 is not a solution (extraneous root)

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of 90°

a point (x, y ) → (- y, x ), thus

P(1, - 1 ) → P'(1, 1 )

Q(3, - 2 ) → Q'(2, 3 )

R(3, - 4 ) → R'(4, 3 )

Solve for x I need help on questions 5 & 6
Effectus [21]

Answer:

#5 x=8, #6 x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Theyre vertical so for number 5 you would have the equation

5x+15=55

    -15   -15 from both sides

5x=40

divide by 5 from both sides and you get

x=8

Same thing vertical so you would have  

16x+7=87

    -7    -7 from both sides

16x=80

divide by 16 from both sides

x=5
