x2+8x+9 = -7 x2+8x+9+7 = 0 x2+8x+16 = 0 (x+4)(x+4) = 0 Therefore: x = -4 and also x = -4 (they both have equal roots)
The possible values for k are -2 and -14 because in order for the line to be tangent to the curve the discriminant must be equal to 0 as follows:- -2x-2 = x2-8x+7 => 6-x2-9 = 0 -14x-2 = x2-8x+7 => -6-x2-9 = 0 Discriminant: 62-4*-1*-9 = 0
x2 + 8x - 9 = 0(x + 9) (x - 1) = 0(x + 9) = 0 . . . . . x = -9(x - 1) = 0 . . . . . x = 1
2x+6x=-9 => 8x=-9=> x=-8/9
8x-2 = -9+7x8x-7x = -9+2x=-7
x2+8x+9 = -7 x2+8x+9+7 = 0 x2+8x+16 = 0 (x+4)(x+4) = 0 Therefore: x = -4 and also x = -4 (they both have equal roots)
The possible values for k are -2 and -14 because in order for the line to be tangent to the curve the discriminant must be equal to 0 as follows:- -2x-2 = x2-8x+7 => 6-x2-9 = 0 -14x-2 = x2-8x+7 => -6-x2-9 = 0 Discriminant: 62-4*-1*-9 = 0
If: -9-4x = 7-8x Then: x = 4
x2 + 8x - 9 = 0(x + 9) (x - 1) = 0(x + 9) = 0 . . . . . x = -9(x - 1) = 0 . . . . . x = 1
-8x+7 = -7x-2 -8x = -7x-2-7 -8x=-7x-9 -8x+7x=-9 -1x=-9 x=-9/-1 x=9
2x+6x=-9 => 8x=-9=> x=-8/9
x^2 - 8x - 9
8x-2 = -9+7x8x-7x = -9+2x=-7
If you mean: x2+8x-9 = 0 then the solutions are x = 1 and x = -9
8x - 9 = 11x + 12 8x = 11x + 21 -3x = 21 x = -7
8x - 4x + 7 = 94x + 7 = 94x = 9-74x = 2x = 4/2x = 1/2x = 0.5
