Question

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.
2x^2 -3x= -6
The solution set is { }

Answer 1

I answered an almost identical question about two seconds ago:


(copied below)
If you go to http://www.wolframalpha.com

and type

solve 0 = 3x^2 + 18x + 22

then click "show steps" it will show you how to complete the square.

If you instead type

quadratic formula

It will give you three little boxes into which you can type the a , b, and c terms. :)

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

OH, this is IMPORTANT -- you have to have your equation in the form

\(ax^2 + bx +c = 0\)

In other words, add that 6 from both sides to get zero!
