You have come to the correct place if you are looking to solve the quadratic equation 85x squared minus 81x minus 88 equals 0, also known as 85x² - 81x - 88 = 0. Below, we walk you through how to find the answer.
To find the two possible answers to 85x^2 - 81x - 88 = 0, we will start by rewriting the equation in factored form. Then, we will create two separate equations that we can use to solve 85x² - 81x - 88 = 0.
Below is 85x squared minus 81x minus 88 in factored form. As you can see, 85x² - 81x - 88 has been grouped into two sets of parentheses.
(5x - 8)(17x + 11)
Next, we set each set of parentheses equal to 0 and solve for x to get the two answers to 85x^2 - 81x - 88 = 0.
(5x - 8) = 0
x1 = 1 3/5
(17x + 11) = 0
x2 = -11/17
