x^2+3x-7=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need my answer checked please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well I want to see if you come up with the same answer I should say.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\left\{\left\{x=\frac{1}{2} \left(-3-\sqrt{37}\right)\right\},\left\{x=\frac{1}{2} \left(-3+\sqrt{37}\right)\right\}\right\} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-3+√37 -3-√37 -------- , -------- 2 2 Then I need the approximate solution to 3 decimal place x= I got 1.541, -4.541

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is what I got is that wrong!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-3+√37 -3-√37 -------- , -------- 2 2 Then I need the approximate solution to 3 decimal place x= I got 1.541, -4.541

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{2} \left(-3-\sqrt{37}\right)=-4.54138 ,\frac{1}{2} \left(-3+\sqrt{37}\right)=1.54138 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so what you have here then that is what I need to put down cause what I have worked out is wrong. how did you get the 1/2 before.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Even if it say "use radical as needed"?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am doing radical expression and quadratic equation.

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

its the same thing, 5/2 = 1/2 * 5 If it says use radicals as needed then use -3+√37 -3-√37 -------- , -------- 2 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and what about the 3 decimal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{2} \left(-3+\sqrt{37}\right)=\frac{1}{2} *\frac{-3+\sqrt{37}}{1}=\frac{-3+\sqrt{37}}{2} \]Your answers look fine to me. The fractions are OK in form.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i wanted to make sure that I am doing it correctly thanks guys and gales. I will be on more for help and checking answers.
