Solve {eq}4x^{2} - 28x + 49 = 25 {/eq} by using the square root property.
Question:
Solve {eq}4x^{2} - 28x + 49 = 25 {/eq} by using the square root property.
Solving Quadratic Equation by Square Root Property
The square root property can be used to solve for the roots of a quadratic equation. Its general form is{eq}\displaystyle ax^{2}=k\: \: or\: \: (ax+b)^{2}=k {/eq}, where a, b, and k are constant, or any quadratic equation which can be rewritten in the same way. Note that in using the square root property, not all quadratic equation can be solved.
