(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)

49 = -5n – 2n<br> I think I know the answer but just wanna be sure?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

n = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

49 = -5n - 2n

combine like terms

-5 - 2 = -7

49 = -7n

divide both sides by -7

49/-7 = -7n/-7

49/-7 = n

49/-7 = -7

-7 = n

The last option is the answer. You can double check by substituting the -3 for the x values and the 17 for y values and the statements would be true.
