How do you calculate 5x5

Solve 2x2 + 8 = 0 by graphing the related function. there are two solutions: . there are no real number solutions. there are two solutions: 2 and -2

Nick has box brads. he uses 4 brads for the first project. nick let’s b represent the original number of brads and finds that for the second project, the number of brads he uses is 8 more than half the difference of b and 4. write an expression to represent the number of brads he uses for the second project.

Hell . what are the solutions to `10x^2 - 38x - 8 = 0`? is this when i find the factors and use the numbers within the factors to determine the zeros? i hope that made sense lol
