Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:    -.28 and   -2.72

Discussion:

This is a quadratic equation (where a = 4, b +12, and c = 3 using the standard notation involved in the solution)

4x^2 + 3= -12x  =>   (given). Add 12x to both sides

4x^2 + 12x + 3 = 0.


From the quadratic formula:

x =   ( -12 +\- sqrt ( 12^2 - 4(4)(3) )    )/ (2 * 4)

x =   ( -12 +\- sqrt (144 -48))/ (2 * 4)      

x =  ( -12 +\- sqrt (96))  / (2 * 4)    

x = ( -12 +\- sqrt(16*6) ) / (2 * 4)


The "+" solution,    x = -12/8  + ( 4 /8)sqrt(6) =  -3/2 + 1/2 (sqrt(6)) =  -.28

The "-" solution     x = -12/8  -  ( 4 /8)sqrt(6)  =  -3/2 - 1/2 (sqrt(6)) = -2.72

MrB

StartFraction one-half left-parenthesis x plus 12 right-parenthesis equals 4 x minus 1.(x + 12) = 4x – 1
Alika [10]

Answer:

1/2.(x+12)=4x-1

x+12=2(4x-1)

x+12=8x-2

Group like terms

12+2=8x-x

14=7x

Divide both sides by 7

x=2
