Divide given eq. by -2, we get, x^2-4x+0.5=0. Here a=1, b=-4 and c=0.5. As disccriminant is given by sqrt(b^2-4*a*c).so sqrt((-4)^2-4*1*0.5)=3.7417.
Real roots are x1,2=-b+-discriminant
x1=-4+3.7417=-0.2583 and x2=-4-3.7417=-7.7417

He reads 1/11 book in 2/5 hour.

A whole book is 11/11 of a book.

He reads 1 book in 22/5 hour.

22/5 hour = 4.4 hour = 4 hours and 24 minutes
