Answer 4

I see what you're doing. You want us to solve them for you. You could have learned how to do it by now with all the questions you're asking us to solve.

Answer 5

xx^2 + 8x -9 = 0 Factor it (x + ?)(x - ?) Multiplies to make -9 and subtracts to give you 8

Answer 6

no i'm actually doing the problem step my step like he/she is telling me soooooo

Answer 8

@lisapeajac why is there two x's at the beginnning?

Answer 9

Answer 10

so the factors will be 1,9

Answer 11

Yep. Which is positive and which is negative?

Answer 12

the 1 is postive.. the 9 is negative

Answer 13

Close. The 1 is negative and the 9 is positive because 9+(-1) = 8

Answer 14

It factors like this: (x + 9)( x - 1)=0 and then when you solve it, the solutions are -9 and 1.
