Question

What is the solution to the equation? (x-3)(x-5)=35

X=-8

X=-5

X=2

X=10

Answer 1

Answer: Option D

(D) x = 10

Explanation:

Answer 2

Expand the equation:
x^2-8x+15=35
x^2-8x-20=0

Solve using quadratic formula:

x=
`\frac{-(-8)+ \sqrt{(-8) ^(2)-4*1(-20 } }{2*1}`

x=10 is the final answer
