X^2 - 8 + 7 = 0 Thank you - I have looked at this for 2 hours and looking at book is not helping. I dont read well. Answer by elima(1433) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! X^2 - 8 + 7 = 0
add
-8+7=-1 -1=0
factor;
(x+1)(x-1)=0
solve each side;
x+1=0
x=-1
x-1=0
x=1
so your answer;
x=-1 or x=1
hope you understand
=)
