Answer:
x=9,-1 and 
Explanation:
we have been given with the quadratic equation 
we compare the given quadratic equation with general quadratic equation
general quadratic is 
from given quadratic equation a=1,b= -8,c= -9
substituting these values in the formula for discriminant 

Now, to find the value of x
Formula is 
Now, substituting the values we will get

And rewritting the given equation by shifting 9 to right hand side of the given equation and taking minus inside the bracket so as to convert it in the form of

you could use this equation to help you solve it;
x + (x + 42) = 138
the first step is to combine like terms;
2x = 138 -42
2x = 96
X = 96/2
X = 48
we already solved for x now substitute it in the equation I gave you.
48 + (48 + 42) = 138
48 + 90 = 138
hope it helped...if you have any concerns just let me know:)
Answer:x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
This triangle is an equilateral triangle with all angles equal.
Sum of angles in a triangle=180
17x-8+17x-8+17x-8=180
Collect like terms
17x+17x+17x-8-8-8=180
51x-24=180
51x=180+24
51x=204
Divide both sides by 51
51x/51=204/51
x=4
<span>The question is asking us to calculate : 13/56 + 5/7. To do this we have first to find the common denominator for these fractions. We know that 56 = 7 * 8, so the common denominator is 56. Then we will multiply the numerator and the denominator of the second fraction by 8. 5/7 * 8/8 = 40/56. Finally we will add : 13/56 + 40/56 = 53/56 and that is the final answer, which can not be simplified. Answer: 53/56</span>
Well there similar because your adding 10 more or 10× since from ones to the tens is 10×
