Answer:
x = - 1 and x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0
Let u = x - 3, then
u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u
(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4
u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2
Convert back to x, that is
x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1
x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5

3.5 years (so 4 years)
2500×0.065 (this gets the amout earned per year) =162.5
568.75÷162.5 (how many years to get the desired amount) =3.5
