This is Anyas solution for the equation x 2 6x 7 0 Is her solution correct Explain your answer in detail points ANSWER AND EXPLANATION class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

x = 7

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

She solved through completing square so we will go through another way

  • x²-6x-7=0
  • x²-7x+x-7=0
  • x(x-7)+1(x-7)=0
  • (x+1)(x-7)=0
  • x=-1 or 7

She's wrong

She did error at 5 the step

  • (x-3)²=16
  • x-3=±4
  • x=7 or -1
