Find out for what value of the variable:

do the trinomial a2+7a+6 and the binomial a+1 have the same value?

do the trinomial 3x2−x+1 and the trinomial 2x2+5x−4 have the same value?

Answer:

[tex]a=-1,\ a=-5[/tex]

[tex]x=-2+i,\ -2-i[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

We have two cases where some variable is required to be found such that some condition is met. The first case is about finding the value of a that complies:

[tex]a^2+7a+6=a+1[/tex]

Rearranging

[tex]a^2+6a+5=0[/tex]

Factoring:

[tex](a+1)(a+5)=0[/tex]

There are two solutions:

[tex]a=-1,\ a=-5[/tex]

The second case requires us to find the value of x such that

[tex]3x^2-x+1 =2x^2+5x-4[/tex]

Rearranging

[tex]x^2+4x+5=0[/tex]

This second-degree equation has no real roots. We'll offer the imaginary (complex) solutions:

[tex]x=-2+i,\ -2-i[/tex]
