Rearrange the equation to standard form of a quadratic equation (ax^2+bx+c=0) by switching sides: 5x^2+2x-12=0. Now, use the quadratic equation formula to solve. You should come out with x_1=sqrt61-1/5 and x_2=-1+sqrt61/5. Thus, your answer is B, or two solutions.
Answer:
10 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply 4 and 2 and then multiply 2 and 4. If you do that then you get 8 8/3. You then just take the numerator and turn it into whole numbers to get 10 2/3.

You use the FOIL method, and how you do this is -
(x - 7) (x + 8)
Multiply the first x by both numbers in the second factor. Which means, you multiply x by x and 8, the two in (x + 8).
With this, you get -
x^2 + 8x
Then do the same thing with -7.
-7x - 56
Then combine the two.
x^2 + 8x - 7x - 56
Combine like terms.
x^2 + x - 56
So now, 7 x 8 is 56
And -7 + 8 would be 1. And that is the value of “x” which is b in the form a^2x + bx + c.
Now with this, you take those two numbers and make the factors =
(x + 8) (x - 7)
Then you set these equal to 0.
x + 8 = 0
Subtract the 8 from both sides.
x = -8
————
x - 7 = 0
Add the 7 on both sides.
x = 7
Answer: A
Find the GCF, in this case 11, and divide both the numerator and denominator by it. Here, it turns out to be 2/11 because 22÷11 is 2 and 110÷11 is 11.
