Answer:
1.5 + 1.3228756555323i
1.5 - 1.3228756555323i
Step-by-step explanation:
y = ax^2 + bx + c
a = 1, b = -3, c = 4
Using the quadractic formula:
Note: Kindly ignore the A in the above solution ^
Hence, there is no real solution. It has complex roots.

First thing to do is to illustrate the problem, Since it was mentioned that work was along the way to training, the order is shown in the picture. Mary's home and workplace are nearer compared to her training center. It is also mentioned that the distance between work and home, denoted as x, is 2/3 of the total distance from home to training. The total distance is (x + 2.5). Thus,
x = 2/3(x+2.5)
x = 2/3 x + 5/3
1/3 x = 5/3
x = 5 km
Thus, the distance from home to work is 5 km. This means that Mary has to walk this distance twice to return home to get her shoes. Then, she will travel again the total distance of 5+2.5 = 7.5 km to get to her training center. So,
Total distance = 2(5km) + 7.5 km
Total distance = 17.5 km
x = 2/3(x+2.5)
x = 2/3 x + 5/3
1/3 x = 5/3
x = 5 km
Thus, the distance from home to work is 5 km. This means that Mary has to walk this distance twice to return home to get her shoes. Then, she will travel again the total distance of 5+2.5 = 7.5 km to get to her training center. So,
Total distance = 2(5km) + 7.5 km
Total distance = 17.5 km
