Please explain how you got your answer also, thank you :)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) y=x²-8x+5=0

2) x²-8x=-5

3) x²-8x+16=9

4) (x-4)²=9

5)(x-4)²-9=0

((x-4)-3)((x-4+3)=0

(x-7)(x-1)=0

x=7 or x=1

sol={1;7}

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
