10y2 - 17y + 12 = y + 16
10y2 - 17y + 12 - 16 = y
10y2 - 17y - 4 = y
10y2 -17y - y -4 = 0
10y2 -16y - 4 = 0
Now put formula
x = -b +- (square root) b2 - 4ac
2a
a = 10 b= -16 c= -4
y = -(-16) +- (square root) -16 - 4 (10) (-4)
2(10)
y = 16 +- (square root) -16 - 400
20
y = 16 +- (square root) -416
20
y = 16 +- 20.396
20
Now this +- is the plus minus thingy in which two answers come
The first we will do is +
16 + 20.396 16 - 20.396
20 20
= 1.8198 = -0.2198
