What are the solutions of this quadratic equation
X^2+4=8c+5

x = 5, c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(5)^2 + 4 = 8(3) + 5

5^2 = 25

8 * 3 = 24

25 + 4 = 24 + 5

29 = 29

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.
