What two numbers add to 8 and multiply to 28

Find numbers that multiply to 28 and add them to see if they add to 8
28=
1 and 28=29 not 8
2 and 14=16 not 8
4 and 7=11 not 8
that's it'
no 2 numbers
we must use quadratic formula

x+y=8
xy=28

x+y=8
subtract x fromb oths ides
y=8-x
subsitute
x(8-x)=28
distribute
8x-x^2=28
add x^2 to both sides
8x=28+x^2
subtract 8x
x^2-8x+28=0

if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0 then x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}
so if we have
1x^2-8+28=0 then
a=1
b=-8
c=28

x=\frac{-(-8)+/- \sqrt{(-8)^{2}-4(1)(28)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{8+/- \sqrt{-48} }{2}
x=\frac{8+/- 4 \sqrt{-3} }{2}
x=4+/- 2 \sqrt{-3}
x=4+/- 2i \sqrt{3}
there are no real numbers that satisfy this

Which expression is equivalent to (2x + 4)2 – (2x2 + 6)?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The correct option is B). 2x^{2}+16x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is (2x+4)^{2}-(2x^{2} +6)

On simplifying,

=(2x+4)^{2}-(2x^{2} +6)

=[4x^{2}+16x+16]-(2x^{2} +6)

=4x^{2}+16x+16-2x^{2}-6

=2x^{2}+16x+10

Thus, The correct option is B). 2x^{2}+16x+10
