How would I solve 16x(x-2)=8x-25. So far I have 16x^2-32x=8x-25
don't know
I have to solve by factoring, by the way
first you multiply the terms in parentheses by 16x, which leaves you 16x^2-32=8x-25, then you go on from there to combine like terms leaving you 16x^2=8x-57
OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I get it now.
at least I think
after that you need to move 8x-57 to the other side which gives you 16x^2-8x+57, then you go on from there
my bad i mad a mistake, it's not -57 it's7
so it should be 16x^2-8x+7
THEN I can factor!
yes
I was stuck on the first part
i made another mistake, it's not+7, it's -7, so it should be 16x^2-8x-7
it should give you (2x-1)(8x-7), and there you go
I am not sure about trusting caesarjua because he corrected himself so many times
You have to solve for x right?
it is right, i check my work man
