Answer:

  -5/4 +i(√2)/4 and -5/4 -i(√2)/4

Step-by-step explanation:

I find simplest form to be easier to get to if the leading coefficient is 1. Dividing by 16, we have ...

  x^2 +5/2x +27/16 = 0

Completing the square by adding and subtracting the square of half the x-coefficient, we get ...

  (x^2 +5/2x +25/16) +27/16 -25/16 = 0

  (x +5/4)^2 = 2/16

Subtracting 2/16, taking the square root, and subtracting 5/4 gives ...

  x +5/4 = ±√(-2/16)

  x = -5/4 ±i(√2)/4

The roots are -5/4 +i(√2)/4 and -5/4 -i(√2)/4.

I NEED HELP FAST PLEASE!!!
hammer [34]

So, we need to figure out how much times the body size of the flea it can jump. First, we need to figure out the size of the flea: <em>2^-4=0.0625</em>

Now that we have the size of the flea, we need to figure out how high it can jump: <em>2^3=8</em>

After we figure out the size of the flea, we need to divide 8 by .0625 because it is inverse operations to multiplication: <em>8/.0625=128</em>

Answer: The flea can jump 128 times higher than it's body size.
