Solve each equation with the quadratic formula. (Show work please)

Let b=x

Such that b^2 =8b-8 will x^2=8x-8

Using the almighty quadratic formula

x1={-b+sqrt (b^2-4ac)}/2a

x2={-b-sqrt (b^2-4ac)}/2a

From the question

a=1

b=8

c=-8

x1={-8+sqrt (8^2-4(-8))}/2

x1=(-8+5.66)/2

x1=-1.17

x2={-8-sqrt (8^2-4(-8))}/2

x2=(-8-5.66)/2

x2=-6.83

:.(x1,x2)=(-1.17,-6.83)

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: 60

step-by-step explanation:

1/2a + (2/3×30)   = 50

1/2a + 20 = 50

1/2a = 30

a = 60
