What is the solution set of y = x2 + 2x + 7 and y = x + 7? a. {(0, 7), (-1, 6)} b. {(0, 7), (-7, 0)} c. {(0, 7), (1, 8)} d. {(-2, 0), (4, 0)}

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

If

AND

y = x + 7, then by the transitive property of equality:

We can solve for the values of x by getting everything on one side of the equals sign and then solving for x:

We can factor out the common x to get:

x(x + 1) = 0

which tells us by the Zero Product Property that either

x = 0 and/or x + 1 = 0 and x = -1

We are expecting 2 solutions for x since this is a second degree polynomial.  We will sub both -1 and 0 into y = x + 7 to solve for the corresponding values of y

y = 0 + 7 so

y = 7 and the coordinate is (0, 7)

y = -1 + 7 so

y = 6 and the coordinate is (-1, 6)

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
