x=2-5(x-1/2)

Solution for x=2-5(x-1/2) equation:

x=2-5(x-1/2)

We move all terms to the left:

x-(2-5(x-1/2))=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x-(2-5(+x-1/2))=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


x*2))-(2-5(+x-1=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x+x*2))-(2-5(-1=0

Wy multiply elements

2x^2+x-1=0

a = 2; b = 1; c = -1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 12-4·2·(-1)
Δ = 9
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{9}=3$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)-3}{2*2}=\frac{-4}{4}
=-1
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)+3}{2*2}=\frac{2}{4}
=1/2
