So, in your equation, a=2, b=-3, c=1. Plug them into the equation:
3 ± √9-8
over 4
Now you separate it into two equations because of the plus/minus sign.
3 + 1
over 4
and
3-1
over 4
So your final two answers are 1 and 1/2.

The answer to your first question:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2 + 4^2 = c^2
9 + 16 = c^2
25 = c^2
square root both sides:
5 = c
So the hypotenuse = 5.
The second question...
the quadratic formula is -b ± √b^2 - 4ac
all over 2a

(9 + 16) = c^2
sqrt(25) = c
5 = c
Second question:
x= .5 and x= 1
(9 + 16) = c^2
sqrt(25) = c
5 = c
Second question:
x= .5 and x= 1
first of is summer so i cant answers ur question its summer time go off and have fun and if u are summer school u should have payed attention in class
