x = 0 or x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

17=x2+8x+17

Step 2: Subtract x^2+8x+17 from both sides.

17−(x2+8x+17)=x2+8x+17−(x2+8x+17)

−x2−8x=0

Step 3: Factor left side of the equation.

(−x)(x+8)=0

Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.

−x=0 or x+8=0

x=0 or x=−8

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
