(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)

How to expand and simplify this equation 7(2a+3)+3(4a-2).
Pavel [41]
Ok, so first we distribute, you multiply the seven into everything in the parentheses next to it. So far we have, 14a+21+3(4a-2). You distribute the three into the parentheses to get, 14a+21+12a-6. You combine the like terms to get, 26a-15. You cannot simplify it any further so the answer is 26a-15.
