Step-by-step explanation:

our equation is x²+16x = -44

  • x²+16x= -44
  • x² is the first term so weill have in the middle 2*x* a number
  • x²+2*x*8 = -44
  • the third term is 8² wich is 64 so we will add it in both sides
  • x²+2*x*8+64 = -44+64
  • (x+8)² = 20

Now that we have completed the perfect square let's solve the equation

  • (x+8)² = 20
  • x+8 = \sqrt{20}or x+8= -\sqrt{20}
  • x = -8+\sqrt{20} or x =  -8- \sqrt{20}

so the first answer is the correct one

64; 8 +/- \sqrt{20}

Rewrite the equation
x^2+16x=-44

Complete the square on the left hand side and add the answer to the right side to balance it
(16/2)^2=(8)^2=64
x^2+16x+64=-44+64

Simplify the equation
(x+8)^2=20

Find the roots of both sides
x+8=4.5 to nearest tenth
x=4.5-8
x=-3.5

Hope it helps

X+x-z; use x=3 & z=4​
nadezda [96]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of operations is not as applicable in this situation because we're just dealing with addition and subtraction.  This is a simple case of plugging in values for the given expression.

x = 3

z = 4

So it becomes...

3 + 3 - 4

6 - 4

2

So with the given expression of x + x - z and the given values of x = 3 and z = 4, the expression should sum to: 2
