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

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,

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

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

Magic man is here, but unfortunately he is broke won’t you him out

Answer from: Quest

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
