What are the solution(s) to the quadratic equation 40 − x2 = 0? x = ±2 x = ±4 x = ±2 x = ±4

hichkok12 [17]

Answer: $x=\±2\sqrt{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solutions of the quadratic equation given in the problem, you can apply the proccedure shown below:

- Subtract 40 from both sides of the equation.

- Multiply both sides of the equation by -1

- Apply square root to both sides of the equation.

Therefore, by applyin the steps above, you obtain:

$40-x^2-40=0-40\\-x^2=-40\\(-1)(-x^2)=(-40)(-1)\\\\x^2=40\\\\\sqrt{x^2}=\±\sqrt{40}\\\\x=\±2\sqrt{10}$
