Question

Solve the following quadratic equation for all values of x in simplest form.

Answer 1

X1=-7, X2=9

Explanation:

(x-1)²-20=44

x²-2x+1-20=44

x²-2x-19=44

x²-2x-19-44=0

x²+7x-9x-19-44=0

x²+7x-9x-63=0

x(x=7)-9x-63=0

x(x+7)-9(x+7)=0

(x+7)(x-9)=0

x+7=0/x-9=0

X1=-7/X2=9

Hope this Helps!

Answer 2

x=1 + and - 8
