5t^2 - 25t - 10 = 0

Looks like a quadratic formula problem, and it might be ugly. The discriminant, by simple visual inspection, tells me this has two real roots.

Let us divide through by 5 to simplify things

t^2 - 5t - 2 = 0

different parabola, but crosses X axis at same place

t = -b +/- sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a

a = 1

b = -5

c = -2

-(-5) +/- sqrt[(-5)^2 - 4(1)(-2)]/2(1)

5 +/- sqrt(17)/2

ugly, but true

Depends on which question you're asking: 1) (5t-5)/-10=70 5t-5=-700 5t=-695 t=-139 2) (5(t-5))/-10=70 5(t-5)=-700 5t-25=-700 5t=-675 t=-135


How do you solve the problem '4p add 5t minus p add 10t'?

"Add" means "+" and "minus" means " - "; so we have:4p + 5t - p + 10tNow group the numbers with variables together:4p - p and 5t + 10t, and then simplify:3p + 15t

Unfortunately, limitations of the browser used by Answers.com means that we cannot see most symbols. It is therefore impossible to give a proper answer to your question. Please resubmit your question spelling out the symbols as "plus", "minus", "times", "equals", "squared", "cubed" etc. Please use "brackets" (or parentheses). "square root 3 2" seems unlikely. Also, there is a minus sign at the end, with nothing following!
