The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots and it can be determined by using nature of roots.
Given that,
Equation; [tex]\rm 3x^2 - 8x + 5 = 5x^2[/tex]
We have to determine,
Which statement about the following equation is true?
According to the question,
To determine the true statement about the equation following all the steps given below.
Equation; [tex]\rm 3x^2-8x+5=5x^2[/tex]
Simplify the equation for the roots of the equation,
[tex]\rm 3x^2-8x+5=5x^2\\\\\rm5x^2- 3x^2+8x-5=0\\\\ 2x^2+8x-5=0\\\\ 2x^2+8x-5=0\\\\2x^2+8x=5\\\\2x(x+4)=5\\\\Then, \ 2x = 5, \ \ x = \dfrac{5}{2} \\\\And\ \ x+4=5, \ \ x=5-4, \ \ x=1[/tex]
The equation has two real roots and x is 1 and 5/2.
Hence, The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots.
