Answer:

Look below

Explanation:


Note: i=√(-1)

18. Start by factoring out a 5 on the left side:


5(x^2+25)=0

Then, divide both sides by 5:


x^2+25=0

Subtract 25 from both sides:


x^2=-25

Take the square root of both sides:


x=-√(-25) \ or\ x=-√(25)


x=-5i, 5i

20. Start by adding 16 to both sides:


-x^2=16

Divide both sides by -1:


x^2=-16

Take the square root of both sides:


x=-√(16) \ or\ -√(-16)


x=-4i, 4i

22. Start by subtracting 96 from both sides:


8x^2=-96

Divide both sides by 8:


x^2=-12

Take the square root of both sides:


x=√(-12)\ or\ -√(-12)


x=-2i√(3), 2i√(3)
