To solve this, first solve the part of the equation in parentheses: (-4+3) = -1. Then multiply using the exponent 2 squared is 2×2 which is 4. Now the equation is -4(-1)+4. Next you multiply, -4(-1)=4. You are then left with 4+4 which equals 8.
-4(-4+3)+2 squared
-4(-1)+2 squared
-4(-1)+4
4+4
8


First of all to make our equation simpler, we'll equal

to a variable like 'a'.
So,

Now let's plug

's value (a) into the equation.

Now we turned our equation into a quadratic equation.
(The variable 'a' will have a solution set of two solutions, but 'x' , which is the variable of our first equation will have a solution set of four solutions since it is a quartic equation (<span>fourth-degree <span>equation) )
Let's solve for a.
The formula used to solve quadratic equations ;

The formula is used in an equation formed like this :
</span></span>

In our equation,
t=16 , b=-41 and c=25
Let's plug the values in the formula to solve.

So the solution set :

We found a's value.
Remember,

So after we found a's solution set, that means.

and

We'll also solve this equations to find x's solution set :)


So the values x has are :

,

,

and

Solution set :

I hope this was clear enough. If not please ask :)
Answer:
9 at minimum
Step-by-step explanation:
a minimum of 9 because it takes a total of 8 rides to take back a full 18 cars back and the 9th ride takes back the remainder which is 0.27777777778 times 18 cars
