Answer:

x + x +1 = -49

2x + 1 = -49

2x +1 -1 = -49 -1

2x = -50

x = -25

x + 1 = -24

Which are the solution of x2=-5x+8

yawa3891 [41]

rewrite the equation set = to 0.

x^2 + 5x - 8 = 0

The quadratic will not factor so you have to use the quadratic formula.

x = (-b + - sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/2a

x = (5 + - sqrt(25 - 4* 1* -8))/2

x = (5 + - sqrt 57)/2

The x2is not the same as 2x. It is x^2. X tot he second power which makes the problem a quadratic equation. You cannot combine the terms x^2 and -5x because they so not have the same power.
