Set it up into ratio or proportion
8/50 :: x/60
There are no numbers for this, thus you will have to use the quadratic formula.
X(4*1) because I’m just doing what I’m told.
Answer: False
=============================================
Explanation:
I'll use x in place of p.
The original equation 10x^2-5x = -8 becomes 10x^2-5x+8 = 0 after moving everything to one side.
Compare this to ax^2+bx+c = 0
We have
Plug those three values into the discriminant formula below
d = b^2 - 4ac
d = (-5)^2 - 4(10)(8)
d = 25 - 40*8
d = 25 - 320
d = -295
The discriminant is negative, which means we have no real solutions. If your teacher has covered complex or imaginary numbers, then you would say that the quadratic has 2 complex roots. If your teacher hasn't covered this topic yet, then you'd simply say "no real solutions".
Either way, this quadratic doesn't have exactly one solution. That only occurs when d = 0. Therefore, the original statement is false.
The answr is A sorry if wrong
