Question

What are the solutions?
1/2x^2 + 2x + 3 = 0

Answer 1

Have you considered the Quadratic Formula?

Answer 2

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }x ^{2} + 2x + 3 = 0\]

Answer 3

@tkhunny yes. I have but it is looking for you to factor it in simplest form then set that equal to zero and find the answer that way I just don't know how with the 1/2 in front of x^2

Answer 4

Multiply the whole thing by '2' and do away with the ½, if that's a problem. Still, no matter what it says, the QuadraticFormula will guide you. It will even tell you how to factor it if that is what you seek.

Answer 5

x^2+4x+6=0

Answer 6

and later use quadratic formula

Answer 7

THANKS @myko & @tkhunny Understand now :)
