Find all real number solutions 3x^-2+7x^-1+2=0 ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what if i find artificial solutions instead of real :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol i dont think that will work... but i sure wish!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply by x^2 both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you'll get: 2x^2+7x+3=0 solve it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=-3 & x=-1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k thanks! ill try and see if i can get the same!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good luck:)

u=x^(-1) u^2=x^(-1*2)=x^(-2) 3u^2+7u+2=0 3u^2+6u+u+2=0 3u(u+2)+(u+2)=0 (u+2)(3u+1)=0 u=-2 u=-1/3 but u=x^(-1) x^(-1)=-2 x=-1/2 x^(-1)=-1/3 x=-3
