X= -8
Step 1. You have to distribute -5 through the parentheses and you will get -5x-35=3x+ 29
Step 2. Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign and get -5x-3x- 35= 29 Part 2. Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign -5x-3x=29+35
Step 3. Collect the like terms -8x=29+35
Part 2. Add the numbers -8x=64
Step 4. Divide both side of the equation by -8

X = 5 -3 x is not quadratic what is the reason​
OleMash [197]

Answer:Although the Quadratic Formula always works as a strategy to solve quadratic equations, for many problems it is not the most efficient method. Sometimes it is faster to factor or complete the square or even just "out-think" the problem. For each equation below, choose the method you think is most efficient to solve the equation and explain your reason. Note that you do not actually need to solve the equation. a. x2+7x−8=0x  

2

+7x−8=0, b. (x+2)2=49(x+2)  

2

=49, c. 5x2−x−7=05x  

2

−x−7=0, d. x2+4x=−1x  

2

+4x=−1.
