Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is [tex]x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]. Here a=20, b=-26, and c=8.

Substitute and you'll have:

[tex]x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} =\frac{26+/-\sqrt{26^2-4(20)(8)} }{2(20)}=\frac{26+/-\sqrt{676-640} }{40)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{26+/-\sqrt{36} }{40}=\frac{26+/-6 }{40}[/tex]

This means the solutions are 26 - 6/ 40 and 26 + 6/ 40.

It simplifies to 1/2 and 4/5.
