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 :
X² + 5x + 8
- B ± √ B2 - 4AC
x = ————————
2A
In our case, A = 1
B = 5
C = 8
Accordingly, B2 - 4AC
= 25 - (32)
= - 7
Applying the quadratic formula :
-5 ± √ 7
x = —————
2
√ 7
Two real solutions:
x =(-5+√7)/2= 1.275
or:
x =(-5-√7)/2=-6.275
