The correct Answer is:
To solve the quadratic equation \(\frac{1}{15}x^2 + \frac{5}{3} = \frac{2}{3}x\) using the quadratic formula, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearrange the equation First, we need to rearrange the equation into the standard form \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\). Starting with: \[ \frac{1}{15}x^2 + \frac{5}{3} - \frac{2}{3}x = 0 \] ### Step 2: Eliminate fractions To eliminate the fractions, we can multiply the entire equation by 15 (the least common multiple of the denominators): \[ 15 \left(\frac{1}{15}x^2\right) + 15 \left(\frac{5}{3}\right) - 15 \left(\frac{2}{3}x\right) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ x^2 + 25 - 10x = 0 \] ### Step 3: Rearrange into standard form Now, we rearrange it to the standard form: \[ x^2 - 10x + 25 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Identify coefficients From the standard form \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\), we identify: - \(a = 1\) - \(b = -10\) - \(c = 25\) ### Step 5: Apply the quadratic formula The quadratic formula is given by: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Substituting the values of \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\): \[ x = \frac{-(-10) \pm \sqrt{(-10)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 25}}{2 \cdot 1} \] ### Step 6: Simplify the expression Calculating the discriminant: \[ x = \frac{10 \pm \sqrt{100 - 100}}{2} \] \[ x = \frac{10 \pm \sqrt{0}}{2} \] \[ x = \frac{10 \pm 0}{2} \] \[ x = \frac{10}{2} \] \[ x = 5 \] ### Final Solution The solution to the equation is: \[ x = 5 \]
