Hi there!

The question gives us the quadratic equation , and it tells us to solve it using the quadratic formula, which goes as . However, we must first find the values of a, b, and c. The official quadratic equation goes as , which matches the format of the given quadratic equation. Hence, the value of a would be 1, the value of b would be 5, and the value of c would be 3. Now, just plug it back into the quadratic equation and simplify to get the zeros of the equation. 

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}  

x = \frac{-(5) \pm \sqrt{(5)^2 - 4(1)(3)} }{2(1)}  

x = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 12} }{2}  

x = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{13} }{2}  

x = \frac{-5 \pm 3.61 }{2}  

x = \frac{-5 + 3.61 }{2}, x = \frac{-5 - 3.61 }{2}

x=-0.695 \ \textgreater \ \ \textgreater \  -0.7, x= -4.305 \ \textgreater \ \ \textgreater \ x=-4.31

Therefore, the solutions to the quadratic equation  are x = -0.7 and x = -4.31. Hope this helped and have a phenomenal day!

Your answer is 4.31

Find the discriminant, and determine the number of real solutions. then solve x^2 +8x+20=0
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Part 1) The quadratic equation has zero real solutions

Part 2) The solutions are

x_1=-4+2i   and x_2=-4-2i

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

x^{2}+8x+20=0  

so

a=1\\b=8\\c=20

The discriminant is equal to

D=(b^{2}-4ac)

If D=0 -----> the quadratic equation has only one real solution

If D>0 -----> the quadratic equation has two real solutions

If D<0 -----> the quadratic equation has two complex solutions

<em>Find the value of D</em>

D=8^{2}-4(1)(20)=-16 -----> the quadratic equation has two complex solutions

<em>Find out the solutions</em>

substitute the values of a,b and c in the formula

x=\frac{-8(+/-)\sqrt{8^{2}-4(1)(20)}} {2(1)}

x=\frac{-8(+/-)\sqrt{-16}} {2}

Remember that

i=\sqrt{-1}

x=\frac{-8(+/-)4i} {2}

x_1=\frac{-8(+)4i} {2}=-4+2i

x_2=\frac{-8(-)4i} {2}=-4-2i
