STEP 1- since 6 doesn't contain the variable to solve for move it to the right side of the equation by subtracting 6 from both sides
X^2-8X=-6
STEP 2- create a trinomial square on the left side of the equation find the value that is equal to the square of half of b the coefficient of x
(b/2)^2 =(-4)^2
STEP 3- add the term to each side of the equation
x^2-8x+(-4)^2=-6=(-4)
STEP 4- simplify the equation
x^2-8x+16=10
STEP 5- factor the perfect trinomial square into (x-4)^2
(x-4)^2=10
STEP 6-solve the equation for x
x=4= square root of 10
X = 3,6 : 6 = 0,6
x : 2x : 3x
0,6 : 1,2 : 1,8
Answer: n=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
3n-7=6n-2n
3n-7=4n
-7=n
n=-7
