Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-2\pm2i}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+4x+8=0\qquad\text{subtract 8 from both sides}\\\\x^2+4x+8-8=0-8\\\\x^2+2(x)(2)=-8\qquad\text{add}\ 2^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2+2(x)(2)+2^2=-8+2^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\(x+2)^2=-8+4\\\\(x+2)^2=-4\iff x+2=\pm\sqrt{-4}\\\\x+2=\pm\sqrt{(4)(-1)}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\\\\x+2=\pm\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt{-1}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{-1}=i\\\\x+2=\pm2\cdot i\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\x=-2\pm2i

Isaac played a video game 20 times and wont about 70% of the games. how many games did he win
skelet666 [1.2K]
Hello!

We know that Isaac played 20 games and won about 70% of them. Now, we must find what 70% of 20 is, so that we know how many games Isaac won.

First, convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100.

70% ÷ 100 = 0.70

Next, multiply the total amount of games Isaac played (20) by about how many he won (0.70):

20 × 0.70 = 14

ANSWER:

Isaac won about 14 games.
