Question 262296: Here is an example of a quadratic equation can you explain to me step by step how to solve it. 5x-2y=8
Answer by drk(1908)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi, since there are no exponents of 2, we have a linear function.
If you meant 5x^2-2y = 8,
then
step 1 - subtract 5x^2 from both sides to get
-2y = -5x^2 + 8
divide by -2 to get
y = (5/2)x^2 + 8
this is expressed as a quadratic model.
