f(x)=x^2+12x+32=0, solve for x

Method 1: Quadratic formulaf(x)= ax2+bx+c, therefore a=1, b=12, c=32 - quadratic formula= (-b+/-(b2-4ac)1/2)/2ax=(-12+(144-128)1/2/2 = -4 or x=(-12-(144-128)

solve this simulatneous equations (with clear algebraic working) : 5x-2y = 33 , 5x + 8y = 18


5x -2y = 33 (substract) 5x + 8y = 18
-10y = 15
y = -1.5
5x + 8(-1.5) = 18
5x = 30
x= 6
