Question

3x^2 – 8x + 5 = 5x^2

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2 -8x +5 = 5x^2\\\\5x^2 - 3x^2 + 8x -5 =0\\\\2x^2 +8x -5 = 0$

a = 2, b = 8, c = -5

$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} }{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{8^2 - ( 4 \times 2 \times (-5))} }{2 \times 2}\\\\x = \frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{64 +40} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{-8 + \sqrt{64 +40} }{4} \ , \ x = \frac{-8 - \sqrt{64 +40} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{-8 + \sqrt{104} }{4} \ , \ x = \frac{-8 - \sqrt{104} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{-8 + \sqrt{4 \times 26} }{4} \ , \ x = \frac{-8 - \sqrt{4 \times 26} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{-8 +2 \sqrt{26} }{4} \ , \ x = \frac{-8 - 2\sqrt{26} }{4}$

$x = \frac{-4 + \sqrt{26} }{2} \ , \ x = \frac{-4 - \sqrt{26} }{2}$
