✔ 最佳答案
4(x-3)² = 60
4(x^2-6x+9)=60
4x^2-24x+36=60
4x^2-24x+36-60=0
4x^2-24x-24=0
x^2-6x-6=0
x^2-6x=6
now, use completing the square:

x^2-6x+9=15
(x-3)^2=15
x-3=±√(15)
x=3±√(15)

x=3+√(15), 3-√(15) answer//

4(x - 3)^2 = 60
(x - 3)^2 = 60/4
x - 3 = ±√15
x = 3 ± √15

you can try this:

4(x-3)^2 =60
4[(x-3)(x+3)]=60
4[x^2-3x+3x-9]=60
4x^2-36=60
4x^2=96
x^2=24
x=square root of 24.

4(x - 3)^2 = 60
(x - 3)^2 = 15
x - 3 = ± √15
x = 3 ± √15

My hand never touched a calculator!
