Answer:
x = -2 ± sqrt(5)
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 4x – 1= 0
Add 1 to each side
x^2 + 4x – 1+1= 0+1
x^2 +4x = 1
Take the coefficient of x
4
Divide by 2
4/2 =2
Square it
2^2=4
Add it to each side
x^2 +4x+4=1+4
(x+2)^2 = 5
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x+2)^2 )=± sqrt(5)
x+2 = ± sqrt(5)
Subtract 2 from each side
x+2-2 = -2 ± sqrt(5)
x = -2 ± sqrt(5)
Should be 180 my g, I’m pretty sure
1. 4(x + 3) = 4x + 12
2. -7(4 - y) = -28 + 7y
3. 6(3x + 5y - 4) = 18x + 30y - 24
4. (9a - 3) / 3 = 3a - 1
5. (0.4(0.3m + 0.6n) / 1.2) = (0.12m + 0.24n) / 1.2 = 0.1m + 0.2n
6. -9 2/3(-2 1/4a + b + 8 1/4) = 21 3/4a - 9 2/3b - 79 3/4)
7. 64x + 24.....GCF = 8.......8(8x + 3)
8. -5y - 35......GCF = -5.....-5(y + 7)
9. 36 - 8z.......GCF = 4.......4(9 - 2z)
10. 54n - 81...GCF = 27......27(2n - 3)
11. -2x + 5......-2(x - 5/2)
12. 3x - 8 .......3(x - 8/3)
13. -1/2x + 6....-1/2(x - 12)
14. -x - 10.......-x(1 + 10)
