Question

PLEASE HELP WITH THIS ONE QUESTION

Answer 1

step 1: move the -4 to the right: x^2 -2x = 4

step 2: add 1 to each side: x^2 -2x + 1 = 4 + 1

step 3: factor the left side and simplify the right side: (x-1)^2 = 5

step 4: take the square root of each side: x - 1 = sqr root of 5

step 5: move the 1 to the other side:
`x=√(5) + 1` and
`x = √(5) -1`
