(x – 2)^2 + 20 = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
seraphim [82]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 2  ± 2 sqrt(5)i

Step-by-step explanation:

(x – 2)^2 + 20 = 0

Subtract 20 from each side

(x – 2)^2 + 20 -20=0 -20

(x – 2)^2 =- 20

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x – 2)^2) =±sqrt(- 20)

x-2  = ±sqrt(- 20)

We know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x-2  = ±sqrt(- 1) sqrt(20)

We know the sqrt (-1) = i

x-2  = ±i sqrt(4*5)

x-2 = ±i sqrt(4) sqrt(5)

Add 2 to each side

x-2+2 = 2 ±i sqrt(4) sqrt(5)

x = 2 ±i 2 sqrt(5)

x = 2  ± 2 sqrt(5)i

-2x-2+x^2+x+180+-2x-2=180
Dominik [7]

Answer:

x= 4, -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 2 + x^2 + x + 180 - 2x - 2 = 180

add like terms and put in descending order

x^2 - 3x + 176 = 180

subtract 180 from both sides

x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0

factor out the equation

(x-4)(x+1)=0

solve for x

x-4=0        x+1=0

x=4            x=-1
