Answer:

x=\frac{5(+/-)\sqrt{25-8a}} {2a}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

ax^{2} -5x+2=0

so

a=a\\b=-5\\c=2

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{5(+/-)\sqrt{-5^{2}-4(a)(2)}}{2a}

x=\frac{5(+/-)\sqrt{25-8a}} {2a}

A radio is being discounted 20% if the sale price of the radio is $51.44 what is the original price of the radio Radio is being
Grace [21]
Original price of the radio is $64.30

Sale price - $51.44
Discount rate - 20%

This means that $51.44 is the discounted price or is equivalent to 80% of the original price, since the 20% equivalent is deducted from the original price.

To get the original price, divide $51.44 by its corresponding percentage, 80%.

$51.44 / 80% = $64.30

To get the discount, multiply the original price by its discount rate

$64.30 x 20% = $12.86

To get the sales price, deduct the discount from the original price.

$64.30 - $12.86 = $51.44
100% - 20% = 80%

The stock market dropped 220 points on Monday. It lost another 48 points on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, it gained 96 points. What
Leona [35]

Answer: 48 points gained in those 3 days.

Subtract 220 with 48, then add 96. Last step would be subtracting 220 with the amount they have now in those 3 days to find how much points the stock market gained in those 3 days.

Subtract 220-48.It‘ll be 172.

Add 172 with 96. 172+96=268.

Subtract 268 with how much points the stock market had 3 days ago. 268-220. So it would be about 48 points gained.
