The Problem is:
$$\\x^2+2x+1=5\\$$
Which I then simplified to
$$\\x^2+2x-4=0\\$$
This problem has been giving me some real trouble. I can't find two numbers that multiply to -4 and add to 2.
I could really use some help. :)
This doesn't have nice integer solutions.
You can express x2 + 2x + 1 = 5 as (x + 1)2 = 5
so x+1 = ±√5
so x = -1±√5
.
Thanks :)
I could not for the life of me figure out any way to solve it :)
