Answer 2

$ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a};\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}$

$5x^2-8x+5=0\to a=5;\ b=-8;\ c=5\\\\\Delta=(-8)^2-4\cdot5\cdot5=64-100=-36\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{-36}=6i$

$x_1=\dfrac{-(-8)-6i}{2\cdot5}=\dfrac{8-6i}{10}=\dfrac{4-3i}{5}\\\\x_2=\dfrac{-(-8)+6i}{2\cdot5}=\dfrac{8+6i}{10}=\dfrac{4+3i}{5}$
