(1/2)x=280

Solution for (1/2)x=280 equation:

(1/2)x=280

We move all terms to the left:

(1/2)x-(280)=0


Domain of the equation: 2)x!=0

x!=0/1

x!=0

x∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

(+1/2)x-280=0

We multiply parentheses

x^2-280=0

a = 1; b = 0; c = -280;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·1·(-280)
Δ = 1120
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1120}=\sqrt{16*70}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{70}=4\sqrt{70}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4\sqrt{70}}{2*1}=\frac{0-4\sqrt{70}}{2}
=-\frac{4\sqrt{70}}{2}
=-2\sqrt{70}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4\sqrt{70}}{2*1}=\frac{0+4\sqrt{70}}{2}
=\frac{4\sqrt{70}}{2}
=2\sqrt{70}
