Solve. (x-4)²=5 PLEASE HELP

Mathematics
1 answer:
goldenfox [79]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-4)^2=5

(x-4)(x-4)=5

x(x-4)-4(x-4)=5

distribute

x^2-4x-4x+16=5

combine like terms

x^2-8x+16=5

move terms to the left and combine

x^2-8x+11=0

use the quadratic formula and simplify

x=-(-8)+/-2 to the square roots of 5 over 2

separate and solve

x=4+ square root of 5

x=4- square root of 5

ANSWER: x=4+/- square root of 5

What is the value of x? 6.75 + 3/8 x = 13 1/4
wolverine [178]
6.75 + 3x/8 = 13.25
3x/8 =13.25 - 6.75
3x/8 = 6.5
3X = 6.5 x 8
3x = 52
x= 52/3

So your answer would be 52/3 :)
