Please let me know if I have solved this equations correctly u^2+9u=14=0 answer u=-2, -7

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Yup! Just make sure when you are doing this, if your answer choices don't have 2 choices in them all to plug these numbers back in and make sure they BOTH work. But if not then you'll only have one real zero... Does that make sense?

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Were you given answer choices for this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hi marrissalovescats! I am a cat lover too with my Kitty Jordan! Question, is the order of my answer correct? Is it (-2,-7) or (-7, -2)

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Were you given answer choices???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When I work in the lab it matters which number you place first.

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Because usually there is no specific order because its not a coordinate pair with x and y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it does not matter if I write the two before the seven?

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

It shouldn't.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LOL! Ok, I hope that I enter it right!

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Yeah I would just put u=-2 and u=-7.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
