Answer:
x = -5 + √65/2 or
x = -5 - √65/2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x² - 5x + 5 = 0
2x² + 5x - 5 = 0
Here,
a = 2
b = 5
c = - 5
Now,
Discriminant
<em><u>D = b² - 4ac</u></em>
<em><u> </u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u> </u></em>= (5)² - 4(2)(-5)
= 25 + 40
= 65
<u>D = 65 > 0</u>
Then,
x = -b +-√b² - 4ac/2a
x = -5 +-√(5)² - 4(2)(-5)/2(2)
= -5 +-√25 + 40/4
= -5 +-√65/4
= -5 +-√65/2
<em><u>x = -5 + √65/2 or x = -5 - √65/2</u></em>
Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 75 + x + 125 = 180
2x + 200 = 180
2x = -20
x = -10
(In this problem a negative number is okay because the end value will be a whole number still.)
