Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x = x^2 - 5               Transfer 4x to the right side.

Solution

x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0          Factor

(x - 5)(x + 1)

You want the negative solution. That means that the middle sign must be plus.

x + 1 = 0                   Subtract 10 from both sides

x = - 1                       Ten on the left disappears by the subtraction process.

Is that correct?

4x = x^2 - 5

x = - 10

4*(-1) = (-1)^2 - 5

-4  = ? 1 - 5

-4 = - 4

and it does work.

The expression (x-6)2is equivalent to
Marizza181 [45]

(x - 6) * 2

I'm assuming this is the expression that you typed out, if it isn't, please let me know in the comments :)

Use the distributive property:

= 2(x) - 2(6)

Multiply and simplify

= 2x - 12

This should be the expression that is equivalent to the original. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
