Answer:

First one:

x = x equals 5 plus or minus the square root of thirty-three all over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 5x + 2

x² - 5x - 2 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

x = [-(-5) +/- sqrt[(-5)² - 4(1)(-2)]/2(1)

x = [5 +/- sqrt(33)]/2

Answer:

A. x equals 5 plus or minus the square root of thirty-three all over 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's move all the terms to one side:

x^2=5x+2

x^2-5x-2=0

Now, we want to use the quadratic formula, which states that for a quadratic equation of the form ax^2+bx+c=0, the roots can be found with the equation: x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} or x=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}.

Here, a = 1, b = -5, and c = -2, so plug these in:

x=\frac{-(-5)+\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(-2)} }{2(1)}=x=\frac{5+\sqrt{25+8} }{2}=\frac{5+\sqrt{33} }{2}

OR

x=\frac{-(-5)-\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(-2)} }{2(1)}=x=\frac{5-\sqrt{25+8} }{2}=\frac{5-\sqrt{33} }{2}

Thus, the answer is A.

Hope this helps!
