solve the following quadratic equation. 8s2+14s+=14
first step: arrange terms in descending power
8s^2+14s-14 = 0
now you can divide by 2 just to use smaller numbners:
4s^2+7s-7 = 0
Now use the quadratic formula:
s = (-7±√161)/8
8s^2+14s-14 = 0
now you can divide by 2 just to use smaller numbners:
4s^2+7s-7 = 0
Now use the quadratic formula:
s = (-7±√161)/8
