$\frac{5+\sqrt{17}}{4}$ , $\frac{5-\sqrt{17}}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

One is asked to find the root of the following equation:

2x^2+1=5x

Manipulate the equation such that it conforms to the standard form of a quadratic equation. The standard quadratic equation in the general format is as follows:

ax^2+bx+c=0

Change the given equation using inverse operations,

2x^2+1=5x

2x^2-5x+1=0

The quadratic formula is a method that can be used to find the roots of a quadratic equation. Graphically speaking, the roots of a quadratic equation are where the graph of the quadratic equation intersects the x-axis. The quadratic formula uses the coefficients of the terms in the quadratic equation to find the values at which the graph of the equation intersects the x-axis. The quadratic formula, in the general format, is as follows:

$\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Please note that the terms used in the general equation of the quadratic formula correspond to the coefficients of the terms in the general format of the quadratic equation. Substitute the coefficients of the terms in the given problem into the quadratic formula,

$\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(1)}}{2(2)}$

Simplify,

$\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(1)}}{2(2)}$

$\frac{5(+-)\sqrt{25-8}}{4}$

$\frac{5(+-)\sqrt{17}}{4}$

Rewrite,

$\frac{5(+-)\sqrt{17}}{4}$

$\frac{5+\sqrt{17}}{4}$ , $\frac{5-\sqrt{17}}{4}$

I’m going to infer you said parallel.solve for yy= -1/2x+7/4lines that are parallel have the same slope, different y intercept.so we know m is -1/2then from there solve for y intercept.

Answer from: Quest

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

step-by-step explanation:
