Answer:

x = 4 ± [tex]\sqrt{19}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 8x = 3

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 = 3 + 16

(x - 4)² = 19 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 4 = ± [tex]\sqrt{19}[/tex] ( add 4 to both sides )

x = 4 ± [tex]\sqrt{19}[/tex]
