- Solve 4x² + 1 = 50:
Subtract 1: 4x² = 49
Divide by 4: x² = 49/4
Take square root: x = ±7/2
- Solve 3(x - 2)² = 27:
Divide by 3: (x - 2)² = 9
Take square root: x - 2 = ±3
Add 2: x = 5 or x = -1
- Solve 5x² - 45 = 0:
Add 45: 5x² = 45
Divide by 5: x² = 9
Take square root: x = ±3
- Solve 3x² = 48:
Divide by 3: x² = 16
Take square root: x = ±4
- Solve x² + 10x + 25 = 16:
Recognize left side as perfect square: (x + 5)² = 16
Take square root: x + 5 = ±4
Subtract 5: x = -1 or x = -9
