8 0
8 x² + 14 x + 5 = 0
2 ( 4 x² + 7 x ) = - 5
2 ( 4 x² + 7 x + 49/16 - 49/16 ) = -5
2 ( 4 x² + 7 x + 49/16 ) - 98/16 = - 5
2 ( 2 x + 7/4 )² = - 5 + 98/16
2 ( 2 x + 7/4 )² = -80/16 + 98/16
2 ( 2 x + 7/4 )² = 18/16 = 9/8       / : 2
( 2 x + 7/4 )² = 9/16     / √
2 x + 7/4 = 3/4
2 x = 3/4 - 7/4 = -1
x = - 1
and  2 x + 7/4 = -3/4
2 x = -7/4 - 3/4 = - 10/4= -5/2
x = - 5 / 4

Inessa [10]
So if 29 students rode in cars, we can subtract 29 from 237 because we don't need to know about the people in the cars, which means that 208 students rode on buses. If there were 8 buses, the we need to divide 208 by 8 which makes 26 students per bus.

I hope this helps!

A 14​-foot piece of string is cut into two pieces so that the longer piece is 2 feet longer than twice the shorter piece. If the
Maurinko [17]
We are given that the shorter piece is x
From your description, the longer piece is 2x + 2
The total length is
x + 2x + 2 = 14
ie
3x + 2 = 14
3x = 12
x = 4

So the length of the shorter piece is 4 ft
Therefore the length of the longer piece must be
(14 - 4) ft = 10 ft
