k=5/2k

Solution for k=5/2k equation:

k=5/2k

We move all terms to the left:

k-(5/2k)=0


Domain of the equation: 2k)!=0

k!=0/1

k!=0

k∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

k-(+5/2k)=0

We get rid of parentheses

k-5/2k=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


k*2k-5=0

Wy multiply elements

2k^2-5=0

a = 2; b = 0; c = -5;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·2·(-5)
Δ = 40
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{40}=\sqrt{4*10}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{10}=2\sqrt{10}$
$k_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-2\sqrt{10}}{2*2}=\frac{0-2\sqrt{10}}{4}
=-\frac{2\sqrt{10}}{4}
=-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}
$
$k_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+2\sqrt{10}}{2*2}=\frac{0+2\sqrt{10}}{4}
=\frac{2\sqrt{10}}{4}
=\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}
