p² + -2p - 10 = 5

5, -3

200

7r² + 84 = -49r

-4, -3

300

9n² + 45n = -36

9(n+1)(n+4)

400

3v³ + 15v² = 36v

3v(v+8)(v−3)

Solve Using Square Roots

100

4x² + 25 = 125

x= 5 or x = -5

200

(4x + 1)² - 16 = 0

x = 3/4 or x = -5/4

300

34 = (a - 2)² - 2

a = 8 or a = -4

400

0 = 3(x + 7)² - 24

x = -7 + 2 square root of 2

or

x = -7 - 2 square root of 2
