Solve the equation x^2-4x-21=0

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

x = 7 and x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-4x-21=0

you can factor to get

(x-7)(x+3)=0

then set each equal to 0

x - 7 = 0 and x + 3 = 0

then just solve for x!

x = 7 and x = -3

Answers

1. b. Commutative Property of Addition 
Reason: There is no multiplication used

2. a. 60
Reason: 36 + 24 = 60

3. b. 3d + 9
Reason: Simplification and combining like terms :)

4. b. 4,-1
Reason: Coefficients are the numbers in front of variables 

5. b. 36m + 9
Reason: Just use distributive property (multiply 9 into both terms inside parenthesis)

6. b. 95.488
Reason: b = 165.288 - 39.7 - 30.1

7. The question is cut off, unanswerable

8. c. 5a, -3a
Reason: Like terms are things you can combine. So technically the answers could be b. and c. but just go with c. because they have variables.

9. b. 16
Reason: just add 4 to both sides to get the "a" by itself

Best of luck to you!

What conic section does the equation x2 + y2 – 4y – 1 = 0 represent?ellipse

hyperbola

circle

parabola

Answers

The conic section that the above equation represents is a CIRCLE.

Use completing the square for y and put the equation in standard form: 
x²+ y² - 4y + [(-4)/2]² - 1 = 0 + [(-4)/2]²
x² + y² - 4y + (-2)² - 1 = 0 + (-2)²
x² + y² - 4y + 4 - 1 = 4 
x² + (y - 2)² - 1 = 4 
x² + (y - 2)² = 4 + 1
x² + (y -2)² = 5

The radius of the circle is the square root of 5. Its center is found at (0,2)

Simplify the following expression
2x − 6y + 3x2 + 7y − 14x

Answers

2x - 6y + 3x² + 7y - 14y = 3x² + (2x - 14x) + (-6y + 7y) = 3x² - 12x + y

Leah has a 20% off coupon for a sports store. There is a tennis racket that is available at a discount of 10%. The store applies the coupon after the 10% is taken. She buys the racket for $34. Approximately, what was the orginal price of the tennis racket

Answers

Answer:the orginal price of the tennis racket is $47

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original price of the tennis racket at the sports store.

Leah has a 20% off coupon for the sports store. The tennis racket is available at a discount of 10%.

The store applies the coupon after the 10% is taken. The value of the discount on the original price of the tennis racket would be

10/100 × x = 0.1 × x = $0.1x

The discounted price of the racket would be

x - 0.1x = 0.9x

The value of the coupon would be

20/100 × 0.9x = 0.2 × 0.9x = 0.18x

The selling price after the coupon was applied would be

0.9x - 0.18x = 0.72x

She buys the racket for $34. This means that

0.72x = 34

x = 34/0.72 = $47
