Solve x2 + 10x = 24 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation? (negative 5 minus StartRoot 34 EndRoot comma negative 5 + Startroot 34 EndRoot)
(negative 5 minus StartRoot 29 EndRoot comma negative 5 + StartRoot 29 EndRoot)
{–12, 2}
{–2, 12}

{ -12 , 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 10x = 24

In order to complete the square, the equation must first be in the form x² + bx =c.

Divide 10, the coefficient of the x term, by 2 to get 5. Then add the square of 5 to both sides of the equation. This step makes the left hand side of the equation a perfect square.

expand exponents.

Add 24 and 25

Factor x² + 10x + 25. In general, when x² + bx + c is a perfect square, it can always be factored as ( x + b/2)².

Take the square root of both sides of the equation.

simplify

Subtract 5 from both sides.

x + 5 - 5 = 7 - 5

x + 5 - 5 = +/- 7 -5
