If Max, bought a large pizza, and we are assuming it's a whole pizza, think of the pizza as having 8 slices. So when he first buys the pizza, he has all of the slices or 8/8 slices. If he ate 5 of the slices, 8-5=3 so 3 slices are left. Put the denominators into the equation to get
8/8-5/8=3/8
3/8 of the pizza is left. This is a better answer than 3 slices because we don't know for sure that there were originally 8 slices.

Hope this helped!

Describe the solution of the equation x^2+7x+2=0

yarga [219]

This is a quadratic equation with a general equation of ax^2 + bx + c.
The quadratic formula can help to get the roots of the equation. We know the highest degree of that equation is 2; so there will be also two roots.
The quadratic formula is
x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2a

With a = 1, b = 7, c = 2,
x = {-7 ± √[(7)^2 - 4(1)(2)]} / 2(1) = (-7 ± √41) / 2

So the two roots are
x1 = (-7 + √41) / 2 = -0.2984
x2 = (-7 - √41) / 2 = 0.2984

This is also another way of factorizing the equation
(x + 0.2984)(x + 0.2984) = x^2 + 7x + 2
