OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the x serving as a multiplication sign or a variable? @amberkels55

Variable!

5x^2

Solving 500 + 5x^2 = 844.45 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-500' to each side of the equation. 500 + -500 + 5x^2 = 844.45 + -500 Combine like terms: 500 + -500 = 0 0 + 5x^2 = 844.45 + -500 5x^2 = 844.45 + -500 Combine like terms: 844.45 + -500 = 344.45 5x^2 = 344.45 Divide each side by '5'. x^2 = 68.89 Simplifying x^2 = 68.89 Take the square root of each side: x = {-8.3, 8.3}
