To solve this equation, first distribute the 2 on the left side:
2x - 6 - 2x^2 = x - (2x+1)^2
Next, square the binomial on the right side:
2x - 6 - 2x^2 = x - (4x^2 + 4x + 1)
Next, distribute the negative sign inside the parentheses:
2x - 6 - 2x^2 = x - 4x^2 - 4x - 1
Combine like terms on both sides:
-2x^2 + 2x - 6 = -3x^2 - 3x - 1
To continue solving for x, we can move all terms to one side of the equation and set it equal to zero:
0 = -x^2 - 5x + 5
Next, we can factor or use the quadratic formula to solve for x. Let's use the quadratic formula:
x = (-(-5) ± sqrt((-5)^2 - 4(1)(5))) / 2(1)x = (5 ± sqrt(25 - 20)) / 2x = (5 ± sqrt(5)) / 2
Therefore, the solutions for x are:
x = (5 + sqrt(5)) / 2x = (5 - sqrt(5)) / 2
These are the solutions to the equation 2(x-3)-2x^2=x-(2x+1)^2.
