Question

Consider 8x2 - 48x = -104.

Write the equation so that

a = 1: x2 + [?]x = [?]

Answer 1

Explanation:

the first one is -6x and -13

the seconds one is 9 and 9

Answer 2

`{x}^(2) - 6x = - 13`

Explanation:

`8 {x}^(2) - 48x = - 104`

We want the a-term to be 1.

Divide the whole equation by 8.

`(8)/(8) {x}^(2) - (48)/(8) x = - (104)/(8) \\ {x}^(2) - 6x = - 13`
