Answer:
x = - 9, x = - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Set (x +)(x + 9) equal to zero, that is
(x + 4)(x + 9) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
Thus
x = - 9, x = - 4
To find the equation of a line, you need to find the slope and y-intercept by using the slope formula and point slope formula.
First, let's find the slope. 11 + 5/9 - 1 = 16/8 = 2. Therefore, the slope is 2.
Then, plug it into the point slope formula.
y + 5 = 2(x - 1).
Distribute: y + 5 = 2x - 2
Subtract 5 on both sides: y = 2x - 7.
Your final equation, that you need to plug into your answer, is y = 2x - 7.

Remark
This is an excellent question. Estimation is a powerful skill to have. People should always shop using estimates. Try it to see what happens.
x = 11.7 which rounds up to which we will call x1 and that is 12
y = 6.03 which round down to 6 which we will call y1 and that is 6
Now x - y = 5.67
If you do the rounded subtraction x1 - y1 = 12 - 6 = 6
The estimate is not zero. D is not correct.
There is enough information E is not the answer.
B is wrong, her estimate is larger than x - y
C is wrong the two subtractions are not equal.
A is correct and always will be no matter what numbers are chosen
A <<<< Answer
