find the roots of each equation by factoring

x^+16=8x
x^2-8x+16=

mathmale · Answer

These are 2 separate problems.

The first one involves x^+16=8x.  This has not been written in standard form for a quadratic equation.  Please rearrange the terms so that your powers of x are in descending order and you have a ' 0 ' on the right side.  Type out your result.

mathmale · Answer

The most common form of a quadratic equation is y = ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

Rewrite x^+16=8x in that form.  Note that you must have an ' 0 ' on the right side.

Then, try factoring your result.
