Answer:
6t-5
x should be the constant term. just guess
The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
7 × 7 = 7 × (10 - 3) = (7)(10) - (7)(3) = 70 - 21 = 49
7 × 7 = 7 × (5 + 2) = (7)(5) + (7)(2) = 35 + 14 = 49
Answer:
x = - 5, x = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 15 = - 8x ( add 8x to both sides )
x² + 8x + 15 = 0 ← in standard form
Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 8)
The factors are 5 and 3, since
5 × 3 = 15 and 5 + 3= 8, thus
(x + 5)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
