Step-by-step explanation:
1.1 Factoring x2-5x-2
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -2
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -2 = -2
Step-2 : Find two factors of -2 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-2 + 1 = -1
-1 + 2 = 1
Equation at the end of step
1
:
x2 - 5x - 2 = 0

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:
2.1 Find the Vertex of y = x2-5x-2
.
Note that the square root of
(x-(5/2))2 is
(x-(5/2))2/2 =
(x-(5/2))1 =
x-(5/2)
Now, applying the Square Root Principle to Eq. #2.2.1 we get:
x-(5/2) = √ 33/4
Add 5/2 to both sides to obtain:
x = 5/2 + √ 33/4
Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative
x2 - 5x - 2 = 0
has two solutions:
x = 5/2 + √ 33/4
or
x = 5/2 - √ 33/4
Note that √ 33/4 can be written as
√ 33 / √ 4 which is √ 33 / 2
Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula
2.3 Solving x2-5x-2 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .
According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :
- B ± √ B2-4AC
x = ————————
2A
In our case, A = 1
B = -5
C = -2
Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =
25 - (-8) =
33
