Question

Solve. x^2 + 8x = 24

–4 ± 2 √ 2

–4 ± 2√ 10

–4 ± 2√ 5

–4 ± 2√ 7

Answer 1

would it be the 2nd one?

Answer 2

Move the constant term to the LHS and use the quadratic formula, or complete the square.

Answer 3

I know how to do it just looking for someone to check my answer and make sure its correct

Answer 4

\[x^2 + 8x = 24 \implies x^2 + 8x +16=24+16 \implies (x+4)^2=40\] \[\implies x+4= \pm \sqrt{40} \implies x=4 \pm \sqrt{40}\]

Answer 5

\[4 \pm \sqrt{40} =4 \pm 2 \sqrt {10}\]

Answer 6

Do math every day.

Answer 7
