7 - 6x- x2 = 0

so changing signs and reordering, x2 + 6x - 7 = 0

then x2 + 7x - x - 7 = 0

that is x(x + 7) - 1(x + 7) = 0

so that (x - 1)*(x + 7) = 0

which implies that x - 1 = 0 ie x = 1

or x + 7 = 0 ie x = -7

How many solutions does 0 equals 0 have?

0 = 0 is an identity and not an equation. Equations have solutions, identities do not.

How can you determine the number of solutions for an equation?

In general, you cannot: it all depends on the domain.x + 2 = 0 has no solutions is the set of positive integers but does have one if the domain is the integers.2x - 3 = 0 has no solutions if the domain is integers, but there is one solution if the domain is the rationals.x2 - 2 = 0 has no solutions if the domain is the rationals but there are two solutions if the domain is the reals.x2 + 2 = 0 has no solutions if the domain is the reals but there are two solutions if the domain is the complex numbers.Cos(x) = 1 has no solutions if the domain is (0, 360) but two solutions for the domain [0, 360].


What is the result if you add 0 on each side of an equation?

The solutions of the equation (if any) remain unchanged.


How many solutions are there to the equation x3 - 7 0?

None because without an equality sign the given expression is not an equation and so therefore no solutions are possible.


What determine how many solutions a quadratic equation will have and whether they are real or imaginary?

The quadratic equation is: Ax2+ Bx + C = 0-- The equation always has two solutions. They arex = 1/2A [ - B + sqrt(B2 - 4AC) ]x = 1/2A [ - B - sqrt(B2 - 4AC) ] .-- The solutions are real if ( B2 > or = 4AC ).-- The solutions are equal if ( B2 = 4AC ).-- The solutions are complex conjugates if ( B2 < 4AC ).-- The solutions are pure imaginary if ( B = 0 ) & (4AC>0 i.e. -4AC


How can you tell how many solutions a quadratic equation will have without solving it?

A quadratic equation can have a maximum of 2 solutions. If the discriminant (b2-4ac) turns out to be less than 0, the equation will have no real roots. If the Discriminant is equal to 0, it will have equal roots. But, if the discriminant turns out to be more than 0,then the equation will have unequal and real roots.


What does it mean if an equation equals 0 does it have one solution no solution or indefinitely many solutions?

It has infinitely many solutions.


Why quadratic equations have two solutions?

If the discriminant of b2-4ac of the quadratic equation is greater the 0 then it will have 2 solutions.

Can a pair of linear equation have exactly two solutions?

No. A pair of linear equation can have 0 solutions (they are parallel), or one solution (they cross at one point) or an infinite number of solutions (they represent the same line).
