Answer:

x = -64

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Multiply 8 to both sides:

(x/8)8 = (-8)8

x = -8 * 8

x = -64

-64 is your solution for x.

$x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{29}}{4},\:x=-\frac{3+\sqrt{29}}{4}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(4x^2+7x-1\right)=\left(4+x\right)\\\mathrm{Refine}\\4x^2+7x-1=4+x\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\4x^2+7x-1-x=4+x-x\\Simplify\\4x^2+6x-1=4\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}4\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\4x^2+6x-1-4=4-4\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\4x^2+6x-5=0\\\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=4,\:b=6,\:c=-5:\\\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-6\pm \sqrt{6^2-4\times \:4\left(-5\right)}}{2\times \:4}$

$\frac{-6+\sqrt{6^2-4\times \:4\left(-5\right)}}{2\times \:4}\\=\frac{-6+\sqrt{6^2+4\times \:4\times \:5}}{2\times \:4}\\=\frac{-6+\sqrt{116}}{2\times \:4}\\=\frac{-6+\sqrt{116}}{8}\\\\Let\: simplify\: ; -6+2\sqrt{29}\\=-2\times \:3+2\sqrt{29}\\=2\left(-3+\sqrt{29}\right)\\=\frac{2\left(-3+\sqrt{29}\right)}{8}\\=\frac{-3+\sqrt{29}}{4}\\$

$\frac{-6-\sqrt{6^2-4\times \:4\left(-5\right)}}{2\times \:4}\\\\=\frac{-6-\sqrt{6^2+4\times \:4\times \:5}}{2\times \:4}\\\\=\frac{-6-\sqrt{116}}{2\times \:4}\\\\=\frac{-6-2\sqrt{29}}{8}\\\\=-\frac{2\left(3+\sqrt{29}\right)}{8}\\\\=-\frac{3+\sqrt{29}}{4}\\\\\\x=\frac{-3+\sqrt{29}}{4},\:x=-\frac{3+\sqrt{29}}{4}$

Find the area of a square with a diagonal of 8cm.

klio [65]

You have to use the Pythagorean theorem but there is a little twist here since a square has has equal sides. So:
x^2+x^2=8
2x^2=8
2/2x^2=8/2
x^2=4
√x^2=√4
x=2
The side of the square is 2.
So now the area of a square is:
Side×Side
2×2=4
The area of the square is 4 centimetres
