Question

Solve by Factoring: 2x2 + 5x - 3 = 0

What are the solutions for x?

Answer 1

(2x-1)(x+3)=0

Answer 2

what are the values of x?

Answer 3

these are the answers to choose from
x = 2
x = 5
x = 1/2
x = -3

Answer 4

what is your choice based on the factors above?

Answer 5

i have no idea

Answer 6

(2x-1)(x+3)=0
for this to be true you have to have:
2x-1=0
or
x+3=0
so, what are the value of x?

Answer 7

In order to understand these, you would have to know what ab = 0 means

Answer 8

x=1/2
x=-3

got to go :)

Answer 9

when you see two terms multiplied by each other and set equal to zero, it means that either one of the two could equal zero. So if ab = 0... a = 0 or b = 0
