Since the 7 is in front of the parentheses you must multiply it by everything inside the parentheses. 7 times X is 7X and 7 times -2 is -14. Then you need to make the X be by itself on one side, to do that you have to add 14 to -14 to make it disappear, and also add 14 to the other side, to 28. Then you divide both sides by 7 to make X be by itself.
7(x-2)=28
7X-14=28
7x=42
X=6
Answer: Number 1 is c=89 ft
Number 2 is b=3 cm
Step-by-step explanation: a²+b²=c²
For number 1, 39 ft is a and 80 ft is b so
39²+80²=c² so 39² is 39x39=1521 and 80² is 80x80=6400 so 6400+1521=7921
7921=c² and the square root of 7921 is 89 so c=89 ft
For number 2, a=1.6 cm and c=3.4 cm so 3.4²-1.6²=b²
3.4² so 3.4x3.4 which is 11.56
1.6² so 1.6x1.6 which is 2.56
11.56-2.56=c² and 11.56-2.56=9
Square root of 9 is 3 so b=3
So number 2 answer is b=3 cm
I hope this helps
There is only one real root, at x=-2, so the polynomial describing this parabola has factors of (x+2) with multiplicity 2. The y-intercept tells you the vertical stretch is 1.
The factorization is y = (x +2)².
The square root of 64 is greater than the square root of 25; (square root sign) 64 > (square root sign) 25
