You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve by using the quadratic formula. 5x^2+4x-7=0
----------
a=5 ; b=4 ; c=-7
-------
Quadratic Formula:-----------
x = [-b + sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/[2a] or x=[-b-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/[2a}
----------------
Your Problem:
x = [-4 + sqrt(4^2-4*5*-7)]/[2*5] or......
x = [-4 + sqrt(156)]/[10].........or......
x= [-4 + 2sqrt(39)]/10...........or
x= [-2 + sqrt(39)]/5......or x = [-2-sqrt(39)]/5
