X^2+6x-16=0
quadratic equation

x = - 8, x = 2 are the solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 6x - 16 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 16) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 6)

The factors are + 8 and - 2 , since

8 × - 2 = - 16 and 8 - 2 = + 6 , thus

(x + 8)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer

a. 12.5 kg

step-by-step explanation:

f = ma

so

m = f/a = (2500 n)/(200 m/s²) = 12.5 kg

1 n = 1 kg·m/s²
