Answer:

x=\frac{5+-\sqrt{39}}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

find  the solution to 2x^2 -5x = -8

To solve the equation for x , we need to make right hand side 0

2x^2 -5x = -8, add 8 on both sides

2x^2 -5x+8 =0

Now use quadratic formula to solve for x

x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

the value of a=2, b=-5 and c=8

Plug in all the values and solve for x

x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

x=\frac{5+-\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(8)} }{2(2)}

x=\frac{5+-\sqrt{39}}{4}

We cannot simplify more

2x²-5x+8=0
use the quadratic formula, x=(5+√39i)/4 of x=(5-√39i)/4
looks like the second choice is correct.

Problem page the price of a notebook has dropped to $3.20 today. Yesterday's price was $3.45 . Find the percentage decrease. Rou
Anna11 [10]

Yesterday's price of notebook = $3.45

Today's price of notebook = $3.20

We have to determine the percentage decrease in the cost of notebook.

Percentage decrease = (Decrease \div Old price) \times 100

So, percentage decrease = \frac{3.45-3.20}{3.45} \times 100

=\frac{0.25}{3.45} \times 100

= 7.246%

= 7.25%

Therefore, there is 7.25% of decrease in the cost of the notebook.

A nursery owner buys 9 panes of glass to fix some damage to her greenhouse. The 9 panes cost
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: $11.80 for another 4 panes of glass.

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 9 panes of glass cost $26.55, but we should first find how many dollars would it cost per pane of glass, or 1.

So, we can divide 26.55 by 9 to find the price per 1 pan of glass.

26.55/9 = 2.95, or $2.95 per pane of glass.

Now, we want to know how much it will cost for 4 panes of glass. Simply multiply 2.95 by 4.

2.95 x 4 = 11.8, or $11.80 for another 4 panes of glass.
