X² - 7x + 10 = 0
Let's factor out the equation first.
x² - 7x + 10
x -2
x -5
This factoring of (x-2)(x-5) fit the equation.
(x-2)(x-5) = 0
One of the factors must equal 0 as to equal zero.
Either x - 2 = 0 or x - 5 = 0
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
The two answers are x = 2 or x = 5. Hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Midpoint (-2,4)
distance nearest tenth = 8.9
The approximate distance = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Formulas
PQ midpoint = (x2 + x1)/2, (y2 + y1)/2
distance d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )
Givens
x2 = -4
x1 = 0
y2 = 1
y1 = 7
Solution
M(PQ) = (-4+0)/2, (1 + 7)/2
M(PQ) = -2, 4
The midpoint is -2,4
The distance = sqrt( (4 - 0)^2 + (1 + 7)^2 )
The distance = sqrt(16 + 64)
The distance = sqrt(80)
The distance = 4√5 exactly
The distance = 8.94
The distance = 8.9 To the nearest tenth
Question 2
The distance is rounded to the nearest whole number which is 9.
