Question

A) -5x2 + 2x - 2 = 0

Answer 1

I believe you wanted that solved? My math is down below.-

1. You have the equation, which is -5•2+2x-2=0.

2. Multiply -5•2 = -10.

3. Then, you get::-10+2x-2=0.

4. Combine the like-terms:
| -10 - -2 = -8. |

5. Combine this with the original equation.

6. -8 + 2x = 0
- 8 - 8
————————
2x. = 8
———- ——
2 2

x= 4
