Solve the equation. x2 + 8x − 9 = 0 A) x = 1 B) x = 9 C) x = 9 or x = −1 D) x = −9 or x = 1

x=1 or x=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 8x − 9 = 0 (8x=9x-x)

x^2 - x+9x-9=0

x(x-1)+9(x-1)=0

(x-1)(x+9)=0

x-1=0 or x+9=0,then

x=1 or x=-9

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

identity property is where 0+whatever number=whatever number. basically 0+ a number.

first one because it can't have a fraction in it
