Answer:
x = - 1 and x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0
Let u = x - 3, then
u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u
(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4
u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2
Convert back to x, that is
x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1
x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5

Answer:
0.6 - 1/4
Convert the decimal to fraction
Thus
0.6 = 3/4
3/5 - 1/4
Find the LCM
the LCM is 20
We get
3/5 - 1/4 = (3(4) - 5)/ 20
= 12-5/20
= 7/20
2/5 + 0.75
0.75 = 3/4
Find the LCM
The LCM is 20
Thus
3/4 +2/5 = ( 3(5) + 2(4))/20
= 15 + 8 /20
= 23 / 20 or 1 3/20
1.75 - 1/6
Convert the decimal to fraction
1.75 = 7/4
Thus we get
7/4 - 1/6
Find the LCM
The LCM is 12
Thus
7/4 - 1/6 = ( 7(3) - 2)/12
= 21 - 2 / 12
= 19/ 12 or 1 7/12
3/10 + 2.125
Convert the decimal to fraction
2.125 = 17/8
Thus
3/10 + 17/8
Find the LCM
the LCM is 40
Thus
3/10 + 17/8 = ( 3(4) + 17(5))/40
= 12 + 85/40
= 97 /40 or 2 17/40
Hope this helps
