Hello there
the answer is
(0,1/16)
hope my answer helps
thank you !
Both A and C would be solutions to the equation.
In order to solve for this you must first get the equation equal to 0.
2x^2+5x+8=6 ----> subtract 6 from both sides
2x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0
Now knowing this we can use the coefficients of each one in descending order of power as a, b and c.
a = 2 (because it is the coefficient to x^2)
b = 5 (because it is the coefficient to x)
c = 2 (because it is the end number)
Now we can plug these values into the quadratic equation.
or -1/2 for the first answer
or -2 for the second answer
