Step-by-step explanation:

x²– 8x - 7 = 0

(x²-8x+16) -7 = 16

(x²-8x+16) = 16+7

(x-4)² = 23

x-4 = √23

so x= 4+√23 or x= -4√23

X^2-8x-7=0
Add 7 to both sides
X^2-8x=7
Now use formula
(B/2a)^2
(-8/2)^2= 16
Add 16 to left subtract from right to get
X^2-8x+16=-9
Now factor into
(X-4)^2=-9
For your final answer
