Answer:
Explanation:
This doesn't factor. Not only that, but it does not give real results. The discriminate is negative.
a = 2
b = 4
c = 10
You could divide this equation by 2
a = 1
b = 2
c = 5
These three are smaller and easier to calculate. The answer will be the same.
x = (- b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4*a*c ) / (2 a)
x = (-2 +/- sqrt(^2 - 4(1)*(5) ) / 2*1
x = (-2 +/- sqrt(4 - 20) ) / 2
X = (-2 +/- sqrt(-16) ) /2
x = (-2 +/- 4i ) / 2
x = ( - 1) +/- 2i
