Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
-2^2+8*x+73-(9)=0
Step by step solution :
STEP1:
Equation at the end of step1:
(((0 - 22) + 8x) + 73) - 9 = 0
STEP2:
STEP3:
Pulling out like terms
3.1 Pull out like factors :
8x + 60 = 4 • (2x + 15)
Equation at the end of step3:
4 • (2x + 15) = 0
STEP4:
Equations which are never true:
4.1 Solve : 4 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation:
4.2 Solve : 2x+15 = 0
Subtract 15 from both sides of the equation :
2x = -15
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
x = -15/2 = -7.500
One solution was found :
x = -15/2 = -7.500
