-8x^2+4x+5=0 using quadratic formula

So you want to solve for x?

It would be nice if this would easily factor:
(-4x + 5)(2x +1)  = 0    This will not work!

So you need to use the quadratic formula:
a = -8, b = 4, c = 5

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

x = (-4 +/- \sqrt{16-4(-8)(5)})/2(-8)
   = (-4 +/- \sqrt{16 + 160})/-16
   = (-4 +\sqrt{176})/-16
   = 1/4 - \sqrt{11}/4

42=-7(z-3) what does a equals?​
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

42=7(z-3)

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

42=7(z-3)

Reorder the terms in parentheses

42=+(+7z-21)

Remove unnecessary parentheses

+42=+7z-21

We move all terms containing z to the left and all other terms to the right.  

-7z=-21-42

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

-7z=-63

We divide both sides of the equation by -07 to get z.  

z=9
