Answer:

\displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  3 \pm \sqrt{ 23}i  }{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:-

\displaystyle  \large{ {x}^{2}  - 3x =  - 8}

First, arrange the expression to the standard form.

Recall the standard form of Quadratic Equation:-

\displaystyle  \large{a {x}^{2}   +  bx  + c = 0}

Therefore, add both sides by 8.

\displaystyle  \large{ {x}^{2}  - 3x  + 8=  - 8 + 8} \\  \displaystyle  \large{ {x}^{2}  - 3x  + 8=  0}

Since we know that the solutions are complex. Therefore, we apply our Quadratic Formula.

<u>Q</u><u>u</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>c</u><u> </u><u>F</u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u>m</u><u>u</u><u>l</u><u>a</u>

\displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  - b \pm  \sqrt{ {b}^{2}  - 4ac} }{2a} }

From the equation, the value of:

  • a = 1
  • b = -3
  • c = 8

Substitute these values in the formula.

\displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  - ( - 3)\pm  \sqrt{ {( - 3)}^{2}  - 4(1)(8)} }{2(1)} } \\  \displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  3\pm  \sqrt{ 9  -32} }{2} } \\  \displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  3 \pm \sqrt{ - 23} }{2} }

Make sure to recall every necesscary and important fundamental math such as multiplying with negative, exponents, etc.

<u>I</u><u>m</u><u>a</u><u>g</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>a</u><u>r</u><u>y</u><u> </u><u>U</u><u>n</u><u>i</u><u>t</u>

\displaystyle \large{i =  \sqrt{ - 1} } \\  \displaystyle \large{ {i}^{2}  =   - 1} \\  \displaystyle \large{ {i}^{3} = -   \sqrt{ - 1}  =  - i} \\  \displaystyle \large{ {i}^{4} =   {i}^{2}  \times  {i}^{2}   =   ( - 1)( - 1) = 1}

From √-23, factor √-1 out.

\displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  3 \pm \sqrt{ 23} \sqrt{ - 1}  }{2} }

Convert √-1 to i.

\displaystyle  \large{ x =   \frac{  3 \pm \sqrt{ 23}i  }{2} }

And we're done!

x^2-3x=-8\\\\x^2-3x+2.25=-5.75\\\\(x-1.5)^2=-5.75\\x-1.5=\pm i\sqrt{5.75}\\\boxed{x=1.5 \pm i\sqrt{5.75}}

Not the prettiest but you can simplify

Answer:

1-3x+8y

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply y and 2

Multiply y and 1

The y just gets copied along.

2*y evaluates to 2y

Multiply x and 4

Multiply x and 1

The x just gets copied along.

The answer is x

4*x evaluates to 4x

2*y-4*x evaluates to 2y-4x

The answer is 2y-4x+8

2*y-4*x+8 evaluates to 2y-4x+8

Multiply y and 6

Multiply y and 1

The y just gets copied along.

The answer is y

6*y evaluates to 6y

2y + 6y = 8y

The answer is 8y-4x+8

2*y-4*x+8+6*y evaluates to 8y-4x+8

-4x + x = -3x

The answer is -3x+8y+8

2*y-4*x+8+6*y+x evaluates to -3x+8y+8

8 - 7 = 1

The answer is 1-3x+8y

2*y-4*x+8+6*y+x-7 evaluates to 1-3x+8y
