Y=2x2-5x+2

Solution for Y=2x2-5x+2 equation:

=2Y^2-5Y+2

We move all terms to the left:

-(2Y^2-5Y+2)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-2Y^2+5Y-2=0

a = -2; b = 5; c = -2;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 52-4·(-2)·(-2)
Δ = 9
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$Y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$Y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{9}=3$
$Y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(5)-3}{2*-2}=\frac{-8}{-4}
=+2
$
$Y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(5)+3}{2*-2}=\frac{-2}{-4}
=1/2
