If you would like to solve the equation 2 * x^2 + 8 * x = x^2 - 16, you can calculate this using the following steps:

<span>2 * x^2 + 8 * x = x^2 - 16
</span><span>2 * x^2 - x^2 + 8 * x + 16 = 0
</span>x^2 + 8 * x + 16 = 0
(x + 4) * (x + 4) = 0
x = - 4

The correct result would be x = - 4.

Answer:

x = -4 is the only solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 2x² + 8x = x² - 16

We can find the value of x by solving the equation.

(2x² + 8x) - x² = (x² - 16) - x²

x² + 8x = - 16

(x² + 8x) + 16 = (-16) + 16

x² + 8x + 16 = 0

(x + 4)² = 0 [ Since a² + b² + 2ab = (a + b)²]

⇒ (x + 4) = 0

x = -4

Therefore, x = -4 is the only solution of the given equation.

Least common multiple find the least common multiple of each set of numbers 15 and 20
just olya [345]

LCM for 15 and 20 is 60.

Here, let's use 20. Add it by 20 and you'll get 40. 15 is not a multiple of 40, so we add 20 to 40 again. 60 is a multiple of 15.

15 x 4
