You can put this solution on YOUR website!
ok here is the quadratic formula
x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+
now a=5 b=-3 c=2
just subsitute the numbers in the formula

i'm not sure if you learned imaginary numbers by now, but if so then the answer becomes
%283+%2B-+sqrt%2831%29i%29%2F%2810%29

5X^2-3X+2=0
x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+
X=(3+-SQRT[-3^2-4*5*2])/2*5
X=(3+-SQRT[9-40])/10
X=(3+-SQRT-31)/10
X=(3+-5.56776i)/10
X=(3/10+5.56776i/10
X=.3+.556776i ANSWER.
X=.3-.556776i ANSWER.
