Hey there!
For this problem you need to replace x with 45
So the new problem is 2(45)+4
2 x 45 = 90
then 90+4 = 94
Your answer is 94
Hope I was able to help!
X^2-22x-48=0
x^2-24x+2x-48=0
x(x-24)+2(x-24)
(x+2)(x-24)
Solve by grouping if you are able to find distinct factors that multiply to the last term and add to the middle term...this method is rather easy with easy to manage numbers. Complete the square if you cannot find distinct factors that multiply to the last term and add to the middle term. Completing the square helps when the equation is in the form of a parabola.
(2y-9)(2y-9)
(2y-9)^2
(2y)^2-2*2y*9+9^2
4y^2-36y+81
