Let's solve each quadratic equation to find its solution set:

  1. 2x² − 32 = 0

    • 2x² = 32
    • x² = 16
    • x = ±4
    • Solution set: {-4, 4}
  2. 4x² − 100 = 0

    • 4x² = 100
    • x² = 25
    • x = ±5
    • Solution set: {-5, 5}
  3. x² − 55 = 9

    • x² = 64
    • x = ±8
    • Solution set: {-8, 8}
  4. x² − 140 = -19

    • x² = 121
    • x = ±11
    • Solution set: {-11, 11}
  5. 2x² − 18 = 0

    • 2x² = 18
    • x² = 9
    • x = ±3
    • Solution set: {-3, 3} (not listed in your options, so we ignore)

Now we can match the equations with their solution sets:

  1. 2x² − 32 = 0 -> {-4, 4}
  2. 4x² − 100 = 0 -> {-5, 5}
  3. x² − 55 = 9 -> {-8, 8}
  4. x² − 140 = -19 -> {-11, 11}

So the completed pairs are:

  • 2x² − 32 = 0{-4, 4}
  • 4x² − 100 = 0{-5, 5}
  • x² − 55 = 9{-8, 8}
  • x² − 140 = -19{-11, 11}

The tile "2x² − 18 = 0" is not matched because its solution set is not provided.
