Sagot :
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write our Givens
[tex] {x}^{2} + 10x - 7 = 0[/tex]
Move the constant term ,(the term with no variable) to the right side.
Here we have a negative 7, so we add 7 to both sides
[tex] {x}^{2} + 10x = 7[/tex]
Next, we take the linear coeffeicent and divide it by 2 then square it.
[tex]( \frac{10}{2} ) {}^{2} = 25[/tex]
Then we add that to both sides
[tex] {x}^{2} + 10x + 25 = 7 + 25[/tex]
[tex] { {x}^{2} } + 10x + 25 = 32[/tex]
Next, we factor the left,
[tex](x + 5)(x + 5) = 32[/tex]
we got 5 because 5 add to 10 and multiply to 25 as well.
so we get
[tex](x + 5) {}^{2} = 32[/tex]
This is called a perfect square trinomial.
Next, we take the square root of both sides
[tex]x + 5 = ± \sqrt{32} [/tex]
± menas that we have a positive and negative solution.
Subtract 5 form both side so we get
[tex]x = - 5± \sqrt{32} [/tex]
The greater solution is when sqr root of 32 is positive so the answer to that is
[tex] \sqrt{32} - 5 = 0.7[/tex]
