times both sides by 2x
x(x+2)=2(4)
x²+2x=8
minus 8 both sides
x²+2x-8=0
factor
what 2 numbers multiply to -8 and add to 2
-2 and 4
(x-2)(x+4)=0
set to zero
x-2=0
x=2
x+4=0
x=-4
x=-4 and 2
Normally you will see these expressions in reverse order with descending powers of the variable.
-4y^4 + y^3 - y^2 + 11y + 9
So you start with the high order terms and end with a constant.
Answer: A.) b= 2a/h-c
1/2h(b+c)= A
2×1/2h(b+c)=A×2
h(b+c)=2A
h÷h(b+c)=2A÷h
b+c=2A/h
b+c-c=2A/h-c
b=2A/h-c
I hope this is good enough:
