Answer:

7/13

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference that is closest to zero will indicate the fraction that is closest to 1/2. Since 1/26 is closest to zero, 7/13 is closest to 1/2.

Solve for x : 2x^2+4x-16=0

alekssr [168]

$2x^2+4x-16=0\ \ \ /:2\\\\x^2+2x-8=0\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2x\cdot1+1^2}_{(*)}-1^2-8=0\\\\(x+1)^2-1-8=0\\\\(x+1)^2-9=0\\\\(x+1)^2=9\iff x+1=-3\ or\ x+1=3\\\\x=-3-1\ or\ x=3-1\\\\x=-4\ or\ x=2\\\\\\(*)\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

$2x^2+4x-16=0\ \ \ /:2\\\\x^2+2x-8=0\\\\a=1;\ b=2;\ c=-8\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\ if\ \Delta > 0\ then\ x_1=\frac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\ and\ x_2=\frac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\\Delta=2^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-8)=4+32=36;\ \sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{36}=6\\\\x_1=\frac{-2-6}{2\cdot1}=\frac{-8}{2}=-4;\ x_2=\frac{-2+6}{2\cdot1}=\frac{4}{2}=2$
