Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x-3)^2 = 80

4x-12^2= 80              --- (distribute)

4x+144= 80          --- ( why a positive 144 because a (-) * a (-) = a (+)

4x =  (80-144)      --- ( subtract -144 from +144(do it on both sides)

4x = -64    --- (divide both sides by 4)

x= -16

Answer 2

Answer:

2√5 +3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x:

4(x-3)^2 = 80

Divide both sides by 4.

(x-3)^2 = 20

Then take the square root of each side.

(x-3) = √20

Add 3 to each side.

x = √20 + 3

√20 can be rewritten as 2√5.

x = 2√5 + 3
