x^2 - 4x = 80

x^2 - 4x + 4 = 80 + 4 (Divide b, which is 4, by 2 and square it.)

x^2 - 4x + 4 = 84

sqrt(x + 2)^2 = sqrt(84)

x + 2 = plus or minus sqrt(84)

Subtract 2 from both sides

x = -2 plus or minus sqrt(84)

Shelly ran 2 1/4 miles Lynne ran 3 1/8 Miles WhobRan Farther and by how much
ValentinkaMS [17]
Lynne ran farther and by 7/8 miles 

You can tell Lynne ran further because she ran 3 whole miles while shelly only ran 2 whole miles. Now you have to subtract to see how much Lynne had ran more.

You found a common denominator between 8 and 4. 4 can turn into 8. so you multiply 4x2 and 1x2 to get a mixed number of 2 2/8

Now you have to turn 3 1/8 because you cannot subtract 2/8 from 1/8. You can turn the fraction into 2 9/8 because there are 8 pieces in a whole.

2 9/8 - 2 2/8 = 0 7/8

Hope this helps! :)
