Answer: False
=============================================
Explanation:
I'll use x in place of p.
The original equation 10x^2-5x = -8 becomes 10x^2-5x+8 = 0 after moving everything to one side.
Compare this to ax^2+bx+c = 0
We have
Plug those three values into the discriminant formula below
d = b^2 - 4ac
d = (-5)^2 - 4(10)(8)
d = 25 - 40*8
d = 25 - 320
d = -295
The discriminant is negative, which means we have no real solutions. If your teacher has covered complex or imaginary numbers, then you would say that the quadratic has 2 complex roots. If your teacher hasn't covered this topic yet, then you'd simply say "no real solutions".
Either way, this quadratic doesn't have exactly one solution. That only occurs when d = 0. Therefore, the original statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x > 486
Explanation:
We have some number x and we divide that by 18. The result is larger than 27. To find possible values for x, we need to undo what is happening to x. The opposite of division is multiplication. We multiply both sides by 18 to cancel out the "18" on the left side, which will isolate x to get it to its own side.
This is what the steps look like
x/18 > 27
18*( x/18 ) > 18*27 .... multiplying both sides by 18
x > 486 ... note the 18's cancel on the left side
So this means x is some number greater than 486.
4. Normal body temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, although it varies slightly for some people. Someone ?
If you need to solve this equation you can multiply the both side of equation on (-1). Like that
<span>2 = (-x);
-1·2 = (-1)·(-x)
if you multiply negative and </span><span>positive </span>you'll have negative,
if you multiply negative and <span>negative you'll have </span><span><span>positive. So
</span>
</span>-2 = x. or
x = -2.
The answer is -2.
