Solution for (5/8)x-1=1 equation:

(5/8)x-1=1

We move all terms to the left:

(5/8)x-1-(1)=0


Domain of the equation: 8)x!=0

x!=0/1

x!=0

x∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

(+5/8)x-1-1=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

(+5/8)x-2=0

We multiply parentheses

5x^2-2=0

a = 5; b = 0; c = -2;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·5·(-2)
Δ = 40
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:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{40}=\sqrt{4*10}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{10}=2\sqrt{10}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-2\sqrt{10}}{2*5}=\frac{0-2\sqrt{10}}{10}
=-\frac{2\sqrt{10}}{10}
=-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{5}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+2\sqrt{10}}{2*5}=\frac{0+2\sqrt{10}}{10}
=\frac{2\sqrt{10}}{10}
=\frac{\sqrt{10}}{5}
