First, move all the terms to one side
x^2+4x-4-8=0
Then, simplify.
x^2+4x-12=0
After that, factor. Ask yourself: Which two numbers add up to 4 and multiply to -12? That would be -2 and 6. Then, rewrite the expression.
(x-2)(x+6)=0
Lastly, solve for x. 
x=2, -6
Your final answer would be x = -6 or x = 2

32/9 as mixed number
bezimeni [28]
9 can only go into 32, three times so you will have 5 leftover so that can be written as 3 5/9. You can also check this by taking the denominator of 9 and multiplying it by the whole number 3..this is 27 and then add the numerator  5 to it. 
So 9*3+5= 32  and then add a denominator.. 32/9.
