Solve for x. write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second.
round to two decimal places.
(x + 8)2 – 7 = 0
smaller x =
larger x

x= -4.5

x= -9/2

I am confused by what you mean when you say: larger and smaller x

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+16-7=0

2x+9=0

2x=0-9

2x=-9

x=-9/2

x=-4.5

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
