Since only one person can finish in first place, one in second, etc., the total number of placers is 12x11x10, or 1320 different ways the 12 racers can finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd....

5x^2-2x=2<br>help plsmmm

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Presumably you're solving for x here? Without further information we'll assume that.

With that in mind, x is approximately equal to 0.86 and -0.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by putting it in the usual ax² + bx + c format.

$5x^2- 2x = 2\\5x^2 - 2x - 2 = 0\\$

let's solve it. First we'll multiply both sides by five, making the first term a perfect square:

$25x^2 - 10x - 10 = 0\\$

Now we'll add 11 to both sides:

$25x^2 - 10x + 1 = 11\\$

Which makes the left side a perfect square:

$(5x - 1)^2 = 11$

And now we can solve for x:

$(5x - 1)^2 = 11\\\\5x - 1 = \sqrt{11} \\\\5x = 1 + \sqrt{11}\\\\x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{11}}{5}$

Note that there's no apparent way of drawing the ± symbol when editing equations, so take that + sign as actually being ±.

That gives us two answers:

$x = \frac{1 + \sqrt{11}}{5}\\\\x \approx \frac{1 + 3.32}5\\\\x \approx \frac{4.32}5\\\\x \approx 0.86$ $x = \frac{1 - \sqrt{11}}{5}\\\\x \approx \frac{1 - 3.32}5\\\\x \approx \frac{-2.32}5\\\\x \approx -0.46$
