Answer:
x2-5x-8=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Two solutions were found :
x =(5-√57)/2=-1.275
x =(5+√57)/2= 6.275
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2".
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring x2-5x-8
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -8
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -8 = -8
Step-2 : Find two factors of -8 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-8 + 1 = -7
-4+ 2 = -2
-2+ 4 = 2
-1 + 8 = 7
Can you put this in order 2, 10, 9, -10, -9, -8, -7, -6, -5 -4, 0,
