What is the first step in solving the quadratic equation x2 – 40 = 0?

taking the square root of both sides of the equation
adding 40 to both sides of the equation
squaring both sides of the equation
subtracting 40 from both sides of the equation

none cuz there are no "following statements" regarding the question

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be d

straight away you can eliminate a and c because not all books contain a scientific skill because some may be fiction. c is also wrong because it saids that the only way children can learn is through books which is incorrect.

b is also wrong because reading can be a scientific skill but not always, therefore it is wrong which leaves you with d, the correct answer since it said that it can children learn.

hope this ! : 3
