Answer 10

sorry had a brain fart :-D

Answer 11

* Bhaskara: x = ( -b(+-)√(b^2-4ac) )/2a
* Your equation: 3x^2 + 7x + 2 = 0
* a = 3; b = 7; c = 2
* x = ( -7 (+-) √(7^2-4*3*2) ) / 2*3
* x = (-7 (+-) √25) ) / 6
* x = (-7 (+-) 5 ) / 6
* x1 = (-7+5)/6 = -1/3
* x2 = (-7-5)/6 = -2

Answer 12

oh Ive only heard it called the quadratic formula.
