ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
start by subtracting 2 both sides
OpenStudy (ammarah):

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
then divide 3 both sides
OpenStudy (ammarah):
wait the swaure root of 8 is 4 rad 2 ??
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
sqrt(8) = sqrt(4*2) = 2sqrt(2)
OpenStudy (ammarah):
i dont get this one: 5x^+13x=2x^+4
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
is this a different question.... ?
are we done wid first question ?

ya
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
cuz there are two solutions, and i think u seem to be missing one
OpenStudy (ammarah):
? for the first question i got 3 plus or minus 2 rad 2
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
okay we're good :)

can u please help me with this next one i have to go
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
5x^2+13x=2x^2+4
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
subtract 2x^2 both sides
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
then complete the square
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
give it a try

OpenStudy (ammarah):
wait so it would be 13/2 and then u take the suare root???
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
not that simple
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
before we begin solving,
u sure ur equation is really like this ?
5x^2+13x=2x^2+4
OpenStudy (ammarah):
wait no its 13 not 13x
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
5x^2+13=2x^2+4
like this ?

yes
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
5x^2+13=2x^2+4
subtract 2x^2 both sides
3x^2 + 13 = 4
subtract 13 both sides
3x^2 = -9
divide 3 both sides
x^2 = -3
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
then what ?
