Answer 1

do you know how to start?

Answer 2

not really, combine?

Answer 3

exactly
so once we have combined we get?

Answer 4

3x^2 = 7x ?

Answer 5

Not quite... you have to combine like terms
Do you see any like terms?

Answer 6

I believe solve for x
how about you solve for condition and I find the x factor and we show him both

Answer 7

it doesn't tell me. it just says solve by whatever method seems easiest

Answer 8

sir I did not get smart with you so pleas don't get smart with me I'm just trying to finish the problem so he can answer it thank you

Answer 9

I don't see like terms, it's been quite awhile since i've had to do this and i've forgotten the methods

Answer 10

okay so you can square root it to get like terms

Answer 11

you don't have like term , therefore, cannot combine like term
step1 move all terms to the LHS to get 3x^2-2x-5=0
step2, solve that quadratic equation

Answer 12

from step2, you can use "factor" method or discriminant method, I prefer factor. can you do it?

Answer 13

no i dont think so

Answer 14

what don't you think?

Answer 15

you can do it just try

Answer 16
