Question 145913: Hi I need some help with this math problem: Solve by completing the square. Write the solutions in simplest radical form. The equation is x to the 2nd power - 14x = -47 Thanks for any help you can provide. Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x^2-14x=-47
x^2-14x+49=-47+49
(x-7)(x-7)=2
(x-7)^2=2
x-7=sqrt2
x=7+-1.414
x=8.41 answer.
x=5.59 anser.
