Algebra-1

To solve the quadratic equation using the Quadratic Formula, we will follow these steps:

Step 1: Identify the Coefficients

From the standard form , we have:

a = 2

b = -10

c = -24

 

Step 2: Calculate the Discriminant

Next, we calculate the discriminant (D):

D = 100 + 192 = 292

 

Step 3: Apply the Quadratic Formula

Now we can use the Quadratic Formula:

 

Substituting in the values we found:

 

Step 4: Simplify
