(x - 1)2 - 4(X + 1) + 2 = 0
2x - 2 - 4x - 4 + 2 = 0
(2x - 4x) - 4 = 0
-2x = 4
x = 4/-2
x = -2
Answer: -5.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(4x + -28) = 9x
Reorder the terms:
(-28 + 4x) = 9x
Remove parenthesis around (-28 + 4x)
-28 + 4x = 9x
Solving
-28 + 4x = 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
-28 + 4x + -9x = 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 4x + -9x = -5x
-28 + -5x = 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
-28 + -5x = 0
Add '28' to each side of the equation.
-28 + 28 + -5x = 0 + 28
Combine like terms: -28 + 28 = 0
0 + -5x = 0 + 28
-5x = 0 + 28
Combine like terms: 0 + 28 = 28
-5x = 28
Divide each side by '-5'.
x = -5.6
Simplifying
x = -5.6
The equation would be 8 times the amount of pounds bought equals the amount paid.
