Show how to solve 8x^2+14x+5=0 by completing the square.

Phoenix [80]

8 x² + 14 x + 5 = 0
2 ( 4 x² + 7 x ) = - 5
2 ( 4 x² + 7 x + 49/16 - 49/16 ) = -5
2 ( 4 x² + 7 x + 49/16 ) - 98/16 = - 5
2 ( 2 x + 7/4 )² = - 5 + 98/16
2 ( 2 x + 7/4 )² = -80/16 + 98/16
2 ( 2 x + 7/4 )² = 18/16 = 9/8 / : 2
( 2 x + 7/4 )² = 9/16 / √
2 x + 7/4 = 3/4
2 x = 3/4 - 7/4 = -1
x = - 1
and 2 x + 7/4 = -3/4
2 x = -7/4 - 3/4 = - 10/4= -5/2
x = - 5 / 4

Hulk left home and walked 8 blocks west. Then he turned and walked 6 blocks north. If each block is 500 ft. long, how far is Hul

son4ous [18]

The answer is 5000 ft

His displacement is actually the hypotenuse (c) of the triangle with sides 6 blocks and 8 blocks.
According to the Pythagorean theoreme:
c² = a² + b²
c² = 6² + 8²
c² = 36 + 64
c² = 100
c = √100
c = 10 blocks

Since 1 block is 500ft long, then 10 blocks are 5000 ft long:
1 : 500ft = 10 : x
x = 10 * 500ft / 1 = 5000 ft

There are 3 ways of solving a simultaneous problem, substitution method, elimination method and Gauss-Jordan method. I'm gonna use the substitution method since it's easier and i think it would suit your level more.

First let's try solving for y since it's easier to start with.

Firstly we have to find an equation for x:

$x-2y=2\\x-2y+2y=2+2y\\x=2+2y$
