Solve this equation for x: x^2+11x+28=0

x = -7 or x = -4

Step-by-step explanation: When an equation has a squared term in it

such as x² + 11x + 28 = 0, it's called a polynomial equation.

The rule for solving a polynomial equation

is to first set it equal to zero, then factor.

Since this equation is already set equal to zero,

our first step is to factor the left side of the equation.

To factor x² + 11x + 28, we need the factors

of 28 that add to 11 which are 7 and 4.

So we have (x + 7)(x + 4) = 0.

Whenever two terms are multiplied together to equal zero,

this means that either one or the other must equal zero.

So if (x + 7)(x + 4) = 0, then either x + 7 = 0 or x + 4 = 0.

Solving each equation from here, we get x = -7 or x = -4.

So our solution is {-7, -4}.

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

answer: 4 meters

step-by-step explanation: to you understand 2/3 better you can do 1 divided by 3 = . then multiply that by the 2 which is .66666666666666667 then you would do 6 x .66666666666666667 which is 4.      

hope this .
