Answer:
x = 4 ± 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 8x = 3
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 = 3 + 16
(x - 4)² = 19 ( take the square root of both sides )
x - 4 = ±
( add 4 to both sides )
x = 4 ±
First, add 2 to both sides. You should have 3/2x=21. Multiply both sides by 2 which gives you 3x= 42. Divide by 3 and you have x=14
Can you expand the question into math formula? Please make it clear
Answer:
x = 88/45
Step-by-step explanation:
square of tangent segment = produce of entire secant and segment of secant outside circle
(GH)² = GS × GW
(13)² = 9(5x + 9)
169 = 45x + 81
45x = 88
x = 88/45
