3x^2-2x-5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please help with quadratic formula!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solving... what are you trying to do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

number 10.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, solve.

sam (.sam.):

\[x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x^2 = 2x+5 3x^2-2x-5 = 0 (3x-5) (x+1) = 0 3x-5=0, x+1=0 x=5/3 , x=-1 x=1,66, x=-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3x ^{2}-2x-5\] \[3x ^{2}+3x-5x-5\] \[3x(x+1)-5(x+1)\] \[(3x-5)(x+1)\] \[x=5/3\] OR \[x=-1\]

Thank You a Sakigirl

solving... ok that are multiple ways to do this and as you continue in your education in math you will find which one you like best... in this case i recommend the quadratic formula which is |dw:1333333004991:dw| where 3x*2 -2x -5 A B C you just plug in the coefficients (numbers in front of the x) or you can factor i will use an example x^2 +2x + 1 |dw:1333333198607:dw|
