Q. Solve for all values of x :7(4x+3)−(4x+3)2=0Answer: x=
Expand Equation: Expand the equation to simplify it.We have the equation 7(4x+3)−(4x+3)2=0. Let's first expand the squared term (4x+3)2.(4x+3)2=(4x+3)(4x+3)=16x2+12x+12x+9=16x2+24x+9
Substitute Expanded Term: Substitute the expanded squared term back into the equation.Now we substitute the expanded (4x+3)2 back into the original equation:7(4x+3)−(16x2+24x+9)=0
Expand and Combine Terms: Expand the remaining term and combine like terms.Next, we expand 7(4x+3) and subtract (16x2+24x+9) from it:7(4x+3)=28x+21So the equation becomes:28x+21−(16x2+24x+9)=0
Distribute Negative Sign: Distribute the negative sign through the second set of parentheses.We need to distribute the negative sign through the second set of parentheses:28x+21−16x2−24x−9=0
Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms to form a quadratic equation.Now we combine like terms:−16x2+(28x−24x)+(21−9)=0−16x2+4x+12=0
Factor Quadratic Equation: Factor the quadratic equation.We need to factor the quadratic equation −16x2+4x+12=0. We can factor out a 4:4(−4x2+x+3)=0Now we need to factor the quadratic expression in the parentheses. However, this expression does not factor nicely, so we may have made a mistake. Let's go back and check our previous steps.
