Solution: x²-8x-9=0
x²-8x-9=0
x²-8x=9
x²-8x+16=9+16
(x+4)²=25
x-4=25
x=29
x-4=-25
x=-21 Is this solution correct? Please explain in full sentences. I appreciate it!!

x=9 x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-8x-9=0    a=1 b=-8 c=-9

you have to use the quadratic formula to get the values.

It's incorrect

x = -1, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-8x-9=0

x²-8x=9

x²-8x+16=9+16

(x-4)²=25

You have to take square root both sides, so RHS would be sqrt(25) = 5 (+/-)

x-4=+/-5

x-4=5

x-4=-5

x=9

x=-1

which expression represents the approximate length of bc?

step-by-step explanation:

the least value out of the data shown is 5, maybe if you post a picture with it i could a little more.
