Question

2.)Which is a solution to the equation?

(x −2)(x + 5) = 18
x = −10

x = −7

x = −4

x = −2

Answer 1

x=-7

Step-by-step explanation: it's B on edg

Answer 2

`(x-2)(x+5) = 18\\ x^(2)-2x+5x-10=18\\ x^(2)+3x-28=0\\ delta=3^(2)-4*1*(-28)=9+112=121\\ x_(1/2)= (-3+11)/(2)/ (-3-11)/(2)=4/-7`

So the answer is -7=x
