(20 points) what is 4x^2 = 32 ?
1 answer:
Answer: x=+2 check over 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Move terms to the left side
42=32
4x2-32=0
2. Common Factor
4x2-32=0
4(x2-8)=0
3. Divide both sides by the same factor
4(x2-8)=0
x2-8=0
4. Use the quadratic formula
x2-8=0
a=1
b=0
C=-8
5. Simplify
. Evaluate the exponent
. Multiply the numbers
.Add zero
