Just two corrections! See attached image.
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of 8 and b taken <u>from</u> 10 means begin with 10 and subtract 8b from it.
8 times the difference of 10 and b means find 10 - b first, <u>then</u> multiply by 8.
So you want to solve for x?
It would be nice if this would easily factor:
(-4x + 5)(2x +1) = 0 This will not work!
So you need to use the quadratic formula:
a = -8, b = 4, c = 5
x = (-4 +/-
)/2(-8)
= (-4 +/-
)/-16
= (-4 +
)/-16
= 1/4 -
/4
