9x^2+x-5=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and use the quadratic equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the a= b=1 c=5?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a=9?

c=-5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=( -b +or - sqrt( b^2 - 4 * a *c))/2*a
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But c=-5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok.

Since quadratic equation should be of the form ax^2+bx+c
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the plus or minus means you have to do the equation twice one with + and one with - which means you should have two answers for x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ax^2 + bx + c = 0
so \[x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac}}{2a}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
amir looks better follow that one

yes.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i was makin that equation and it take a while if it didn't i'll answer first
OpenStudy (anonymous):
amir.sat will you verify my answer is correct once i work the problem?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
where's you answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[-1\pm \sqrt{9 /18}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
or does the 9/18 reduce futher
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what's this?
is it the solve way of that problem?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
replace the value in the formula that i've posted.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a=9 b=1 c=-5? right I just plug in the numbers
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so you are able to find the values of x

what is your answer? please
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok wait
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[x=\frac{-1+\sqrt{1+1800}}{18}\]
\[x=\frac{-1-\sqrt{1+1800}}{18}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-4ac= -4(9)(-5) = 180?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not sure where you got 1800

OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes okk it's 180
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the square root of 180 =\[6\sqrt{5}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no it's 180+1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay then it's 9/18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it's not
