ANSWER
x =   - 11\: or \: x =  3



EXPLANATION

The quadratic equation given to us is

{x}^{2}  + 8x = 33


We add half the square of the coefficient of
x
to both sides of the equation to obtain,

{x}^{2} + 8x +  {(4)}^{2}  = 33 +  {(4)}^{2}


This implies that,
{x}^{2} + 8x +  {(4)}^{2}  = 33 + 16

The right hand side simplifies to

{x}^{2} + 8x +  {(4)}^{2}  = 49


The left hand side is a perfect square.

This gives us


{(x + 4)}^{2}  = 49

We take the square root of both sides


x + 4 =  \pm \sqrt{49}

This evaluates to

x + 4 =  \pm 7


We make x the subject.


x =   - 4\pm 7

We now split the square root sign to get



.

x =   - 4 - 7 \: or \: x =  - 4 + 7


x =   - 11\: or \: x =  3

The correct answer is A.

Joe will build a rectangular pen for his dog. A wall will form one side of the pen. Joe has 40 ft of fencing to form the other t
Svetlanka [38]
Material=wall+2*side and material is 40 ft so:

40=w+2s

w=40-2s

Area=ws, using w from above we get:

A=(40-2s)s

A=40s-2s^2

dA/ds=40-4s and d2A/ds2=-4

Since d2A/ds2 is a constant negative acceleration, when dA/ds=0, A(s) is at an absolute maximum.

dA/ds=0 when 4s=40, s=10 ft

And since w=40-2s, w=20 ft

So the dimensions of the pen are 20 ft by 10 ft, with the 20 ft side being opposite the wall.  And the maximum possible area is thus 200 ft^2
