<h2><u>QUADRATIC EQUATION</u></h2>

<h2>\mathbb{ANSWER:}</h2>
  • \bold{x = 0.8 \: } \:  \sf \:  {\color{grey}or} \:  \:  \:  \bold{ x=  \frac{4}{5} } \\

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<u>How can </u><u>we</u><u> factor 5x^2 + 26x - 24 = 0 using the completing the square </u><u>method?</u>

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

\bold{Given \:  Equation: \color{brown} 5x²+26x-24=0}

First, add 24 to both sides.

  • \bold{5x²+26x-24 - \purple{ 24} = 0 +  \purple{24}}

  • \bold{ \implies \: 5x²+26x = 24 }

Since the coefficient of 5x² is 5, divide both sides by 5.

  • \bold{ \frac{5 {x}^{2} + 26x }{5} =  \frac{24}{5}  } \\

  • \bold{ \implies \:  {x}^{2} +  \frac{26}{5} x =  \frac{24}{5}  } \\

The coefficient of 26/5x is 26/5. So, let b=26/5.

Then we need to add (b/2)²=169/25 to both sides to complete the square.

Add 169/25 to both sides.

  • \bold{ {x}^{2} +  \frac{26}{5} x +  \frac{  \purple{169}}{ \purple{25}}=  \frac{24}{5}    +  \frac{ \purple{169}}{ \purple{25}} } \\

  • \bold{ \implies \:\bold{ {x}^{2} +  \frac{26}{5} x +  \frac{  169}{ {25}}=  \frac{289}{25}  } } \\

Factor the left side.

  • \bold{(x +  \frac{13}{5} ) {}^{2} =  \frac{289}{25}  } \\

Take square root.

  • \bold{x +  \frac{13}{5} = ±  \:  \sqrt{ \frac{289}{25}  }} \\

Then, add (-13)/5 to both sides.

  • \bold{x +  \frac{13}{5} +  \frac{\purple{ - 13} }{\purple{ 5}} = \frac{{ - 13} }{{ 5}} ± \:      \sqrt{ \frac{289}{25}}} \\

  • \bold{  \: x =  \frac{ - 13}{5} ± \sqrt{ \frac{289}{25} } } \\

  • \implies \: \underline{ \boxed{ \bold{   \frac{4}{5}  } \sf  \:  \: or \:  \:  \bold{ x =  - 6}}} \\

Norma-Jean [14]
6²/2(3) +4

6²=36
2(3)=6
So now we have
36/6 + 4  which is 6 + 4 which is 10.

5/7 x 14/20<br><br> Snannan
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

\frac{1}{2}  \: or \: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5}{7}  \times  \frac{14}{20}  =  \frac{5 \times 14}{7 \times 20}

It can be also written as -

=  >  \frac{5 \times 14}{20 \times 7}  =  \frac{5}{20}  \times  \frac{14}{7}  =  \frac{1}{4}  \times 2 =  \frac{1}{2}
