Which of the following are solutions to the equation below?
Check all that apply.
x^2 + 4x-9 = 5x + 3

Answer:
Answer:
x=−3 & x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract 5x+3 from both sides.
x2+4x−9−(5x+3)=5x+3−(5x+3)
x2−x−12=0
Step 2: Factor left side of equation.
(x+3)(x−4)=0
Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.
x+3=0 or x−4=0
x=−3 or x=4
Answer:
x=4 x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 4x-9 = 5x + 3
Subtract 5x from each side
x^2 + 4x-5x-9 = 5x -5x+ 3
x^2 +-x-9 = 3
Subtract 3 from each side
x^2 -x-9-3 = 3-3
x^2 -x -12 =0
Factor
What 2 numbers multiply to -12 and add to -4
-4*3 = -12
-4+3 =-1
(x-4)(x+3) =0
Using the zero product property
x-4 =0 x+3 =0
x=4 x=-3
