Add 10 and use the quadratic formula.
  5x^2 +11x -2 = 0
  x = (-11 ±√(11^2 -4(5)(-2)))/(2(5))
  x = (-11 ±√161)/10 ≈ {-2.368858, 0.168858}

_____
The quadratic formula tells you that for ax^{2}+bx+c=0 the solutions are
x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

Add 10 to both sides so that the equation becomes 5x^2 + 11x - 2 = 0.
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                     x = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                     x = [ -11 ± √(11^2 - 4(5)(-2)) ] / ( 2(5) )
                     x = [ -11 ± √(121 - (-40) ) ] / ( 10 )
                     x = [ -11 ± √(161) ] / ( 10)
                     x = [ -11 ± sqrt(161) ] / ( 10 )
                     x = -11/10 ± sqrt(161)/10
The answers are -11/10 + sqrt(161)/10 and -11/10 - sqrt(161)/10.

2. Consider the circle x^2−4x+y^2+10y+13=0. There are two lines tangent to this circle having a slope of 2/3.
likoan [24]

Answer:

a) The coordinates are (0.431, -2.646) and (3.568,-7.354)

b) The tangent lines are

l₁ = (x-0.431)*2/3 - 2.646

l₂ = (x-3.568)2/3 - 7.354

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets complete squares, by taking for each cordinate the square of a linear expression

0= x²−4x+y²+10y+13 = (x-2)²+ 4  + (y+5)²-25+13 = (x-2)²+(y+5)² - 8

Hence (x-2)² + (y+5)² = 8

Lets put y in function of x. We should obtain 2 functions f and g that represent the circle.

(y+5)² = 8 - (x-2)² = -x² + 4x + 4

y = ^+_- \sqrt{-x^2+4x+4} -5

Thus

f(x) = \sqrt{-x^2+4x+4} - 5

g(x) = -\sqrt{-x^2+4x+4} - 5

Lets find the derivate of each function and the points in which they reach the value 2/3. In those points the tangent line will have a slope of 2/3.

We may just find the values of x which the derivate of f is either 2/3 or -2/3.

\frac{-x+2}{\sqrt{-x^2+4x+4}} = ^+_-\frac{2}{3} \Leftrightarrow \frac{x^2-4x+4}{-x^2+4x+4} = \frac{4}{9} \Leftrightarrow 9(x^2-4x+4) = 4(-x^2+4x+4) \\\Leftrightarrow 13x^2-52x+20 = 0

The quadratic has roots

\frac{52 ^+_-\sqrt{1664}}{26}

one root is 3.568, which corresponds with g, and the other root is 0.431, corresponding to f.

Also g(3.568) = - 7.354 and f(0.431) = -2.646

This means that the coordinates are (0.431 , -2.646), (3.568 , -7.354) and the tangent lines are

l₁ = (x-0.431)*2/3 - 2.646

l₂ = (x-3.568)2/3 - 7.354
