Solve the quratic equation 2x2 + 5x + 2 = 0 using formula method ​

Answer»

ong>GIVEN EQUATION

\sf\to 2x^2+5x+2=0

Formula

\sf\to x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

Now Compare with

\sf\to ax^2+bx+c=0

We GET

\sf\to a=1 , b = 5\: and\:c=2

Put the value on formula

\sf\to x=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{(5)^2-4\times2\times2} }{2\times2}

\sf\to x=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{25-16} }{4}

\sf\to x=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{9} }{4}

\sf\to x = \dfrac{-5\pm3}{4}

\sf\to x=\dfrac{-5+3}{4} \: and \:\dfrac{-5-3}{4}

\sf\to x=\dfrac{-2}{4} \: and \: \dfrac{-8}{4}

\sf\to x= \dfrac{-1}{2} \:and\: x= -2

Answer

\sf\to x= \dfrac{-1}{2} \:and\: x= -2
