Answer:

x=\frac{1+\sqrt{41}}{5},\\x=\frac{1-\sqrt{41}}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula states that the solutions for a quadratic is standard form ax^2+bx+c are equal to x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}.

In 5x^2-2x-8=0, we can assign the values:

  • a of 5
  • b of -2
  • c of -8

Thus, we have:

x=\frac{-(-2)\pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4(5)(-8)}}{2(5)},\\x=\frac{2\pm \sqrt{164}}{10},\\\begin{cases}x=\frac{2+ \sqrt{164}}{10}, x=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{\sqrt{41}}{5}=\frac{1+\sqrt{41}}{5}\\x=\frac{2- \sqrt{164}}{10}, x=\frac{1}{5}-\frac{\sqrt{41}}{5}=\frac{1-\sqrt{41}}{5}\end{cases}

Answer:

(1+√41)/5, (1-√41)/5

Step-by-step explanation:

quadratic formula is (-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a

in this equation,

a = 5

b = -2

c = -8

plug in the values

(2±√(4 - 4(5)(-8))/10

(2±√(4 + 160)/10

(2±√(164)/10

(2±2√(41))/10

1. (2+2√41)/10

(1+√41)/5

2. (2-2√41)/10

(1-√41)/5

Answer:

answer and explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

2.m<x=75(angle on the same line so 180-105)

  m<y=105 (vertical angles of the parallelogram are equal)

 m<z=75 ( vertical angle of m<x)

3.M<y = 25 ( vertical angle property)

m<z=155( on the same line)

m<z and M,x =155( vertical angles )
