(2x)*(2,5x)=17

Solution for (2x)*(2,5x)=17 equation:

(2x)(2.5x)=17

We move all terms to the left:

(2x)(2.5x)-(17)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2x(+2.5x)-17=0

We multiply parentheses

4x^2-17=0

a = 4; b = 0; c = -17;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·4·(-17)
Δ = 272
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{272}=\sqrt{16*17}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{17}=4\sqrt{17}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4\sqrt{17}}{2*4}=\frac{0-4\sqrt{17}}{8}
=-\frac{4\sqrt{17}}{8}
=-\frac{\sqrt{17}}{2}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4\sqrt{17}}{2*4}=\frac{0+4\sqrt{17}}{8}
=\frac{4\sqrt{17}}{8}
=\frac{\sqrt{17}}{2}
