1) Expanding the left side of the equation: (2x+5)^2 = (2x+5)(2x+5) = 4x^2 + 10x + 10x + 25 = 4x^2 + 20x + 25
Expanding the right side of the equation: 16 + (x-3)^2 = 16 + (x^2 - 6x + 9) = 16 + x^2 - 6x + 9 = x^2 - 6x + 25
Setting the left and right sides equal to each other: 4x^2 + 20x + 25 = x^2 - 6x + 25 Combine like terms: 3x^2 + 26x = 0
Now we need to solve for x. Factoring out an x from the equation: x(3x + 26) = 0 Setting each factor equal to zero: x = 0 or 3x + 26 = 0 If we solve for x in the second equation: 3x = -26 x = -26/3
Therefore, the solutions are x = 0 and x = -26/3.
2) Expanding the left side of the equation: (x-1)^2 = (x-1)(x-1) = x^2 - x - x + 1 = x^2 - 2x + 1
Expanding the right side of the equation: 17 - (3x+4)^2 = 17 - (9x^2 + 24x + 16) = 17 - 9x^2 - 24x - 16 = -9x^2 - 24x + 1
Setting the left and right sides equal to each other: x^2 - 2x + 1 = -9x^2 - 24x + 1
Combining like terms: 10x^2 + 22x = 0
Factoring out an x from the equation: x(10x + 22) = 0 Setting each factor equal to zero: x = 0 or 10x + 22 = 0 If we solve for x in the second equation: 10x = -22 x = -22/10 x = -11/5
The solutions to the equation are x = 0 and x = -11/5.
