Answer:
(x + 7)^2 = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 23x – 19 = 9x - 4
x^2 + 23x - 9x = -4 + 19
x^2 + 14x = 15 = 0
Completing the square:
(x + 14/2)^2 - (14/2)^2 = 15
(x + 7)^2 - 49 = 15
(x + 7)^2 = 64
This does not look easy to factor, so I'd suggest using the quadratic formula:
-1 plus or minus sqrt( 1-4(3)(-5) )
x = -----------------------------------------------
2*3
-1 plus or minus sqrt(61)
= ------------------------------------
6
Thus, there are 2 real, unequal, irrational roots / solutions.
If you have snap you can use that just hold down on screen your problem
Hello! And thank you for your question!
First add 5/3 to both sides:
2x = 7 + 5/3
Then simplify 7 + 5/3:
2x = 26/3
Then divide both sides by 2:
x = 26/3 over 2
After that simplify 26/3/2:
x = 26 over 3 x 2
Simplify 3 x 2:
x = 26/6
Simplify:
x = 13/3 or 4 1/3
Final Answer:
x = 13/3 or 4 1/3
