What are the solutions of x2 = 8 - 5x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
jonny [76]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

That can be re-written:

x^2 + 5x -8 = 0

We use the Quadratic Formula

a=1

b = 5

c = -8

x = [-b +- sq root (b^2 - 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [-5 +- sq root (25 - - 32)] / 2

x1 = [-5 + sq root (57)] / 2

x1 = 1.27491722

x2 = [-5 - sq root (57)] / 2

x2 = -6.2749172176

When a number is divided by 5 the answer is 3 remainder 4, what is that number?
skelet666 [1.2K]

We know that 5 fits entirely into our number three times, and then there's a remainder of 4.

If 5 fits three times exactly, it means that our number is at least 15 (5x3).

From here, we have a remainder of 4, which leads to 15+4=19
