Rearrange the equation: To find the values of x when x+x8=7, rearrange the equation to x2−7x+8=0.
Factor the quadratic equation: Factor the quadratic equation to (x−1)(x−8)=0.
Set equal to zero: Set each factor equal to zero: x−1=0 or x−8=0.
Solve for x: Solve for x: x=1 or x=8.
Calculate the discriminant: For the equation (m−1)x2+9x−8=0, to have no solution in the interval 0.5≤x≤7, the discriminant must be negative.
Simplify the discriminant: The discriminant is b2−4ac, where a=m−1, b=9, and c=−8.
Set discriminant less than 0: Calculate the discriminant: (9)2−4(m−1)(−8).
Solve for m: Simplify the discriminant: 81+32m−32.
Choose a value for m: Set the discriminant less than 0: 81+32m−32<0.
Plot the line: Solve for m: 32m<−49.
Plot the line: Solve for m: 32m<−49.Divide by 32: m<−3249.
Plot the line: Solve for m: 32m<−49. Divide by 32: m<−3249. Choose a value for m that is less than −3249, for example, m=−2.
