what is the sum of the roots of the equation 5x^2-10x+3=0?​

Sagot :

Answer:

Sum of the root = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x2 -10x +3 = 0

We know that general form of quadratic equation

ax2 + bx + c = 0

Now comparing both equation so we get

a=5, b=-10 and c=3

We also know that

Sum of the root = -b/a

In the given eqn (1) a=5 and b=-10

Thus sum of roots =- (-10/5) =-(-2)=2

So sum of the root = -(-10)/5 = 2

Hence, Sum of the root = 2
