Answer:

No real solutions.

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

11x2−5x+2=0

For this equation: a=11, b=-5, c=2

11x2+−5x+2=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=11, b=-5, c=2.

x=

−b±√b2−4ac

2a

x=

−(−5)±√(−5)2−4(11)(2)

2(11)

x=

5±√−63

22

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

11x² - 5x + 2 = 0 ← in standard form with

a = 11, b = - 5 , c = 2

Solve using the quadratic formula

x =
(-b+/-√(b^2-4ac) )/(2a)

=
(5+/-√(((-5)^2-(4(11)(2)) )/(2(11))

=
(5+/-√(25-88) )/(22)

=
(5+/-√(-63) )/(22)

=
(5+/-√(9(-1)(7)) )/(22)

=
(5+/-3i√(7) )/(22)

Then

x =
(5)/(22) -
(3)/(22) i
√(7) ,
(5)/(22) +
(3)/(22) i
√(7)
