Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic formula states that the solutions for a quadratic is standard form
are equal to
.
In
, we can assign the values:
Thus, we have:
Answer:
(1+√41)/5, (1-√41)/5
Step-by-step explanation:
quadratic formula is (-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
in this equation,
a = 5
b = -2
c = -8
plug in the values
(2±√(4 – 4(5)(-8))/10
(2±√(4 + 160)/10
(2±√(164)/10
(2±2√(41))/10
1. (2+2√41)/10
(1+√41)/5
2. (2-2√41)/10
(1-√41)/5
