(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)

Jason ordered the numbers −70, −18, and −18.5 from least to greatest by writing the following statement:
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

For negative numbers, the larger the number is the smaller its value is. For example -18 is greater than -18.5. This is because -18 is closer to 0 than -18.5 is. If you were to plot -18 and -18.5 on a number line you would see that -18 is closer to 0.
