3m^2+10m+3=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need to make m 0 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factor then solve for m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(3m+1)(m+3)=0 now 3m+1=0 and m+3=0 solve for m what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

karate get back kung fu you huh ya ya

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the quadratic formula to solve this the generalised form is given by\[x = \frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{ 2a}\] for this problem a= 3, b=10 and c = 3 and instead of x solve for m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why use quad when it factors

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i agree with you that i factors but to make it clearet quadratic fomrmula makes it easier for someone whose just started calculus

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i do not agree because this is algebra

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3m^2+10m+3=0 \\ 13m^2 +3 = 0 \\13m^2 = -3 \\ m^2 = \frac {-3}{13} = \sqrt{-0.230}\]
