You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I got the same result:
\n" ); document.write( "4 * (x-5)^2 = -32
\n" ); document.write( "(x-5)^2 = -8
\n" ); document.write( "x-5 = +/-2i * sqrt(2)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5 +/-2i * sqrt(2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "proof:
\n" ); document.write( "4 * (x-5)^2 =
\n" ); document.write( "4 * ([5 +/-2i * sqrt(2)] - 5)^2 =
\n" ); document.write( "4 * (+/-2i * sqrt(2))^2 =
\n" ); document.write( "4 * (+/-2)^2 * i^2 * sqrt(2)^2 =
\n" ); document.write( "4 * 4 * -1 * 2 = -32
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
