Question

If the quadratic formula is used to find the solution set of 3x^2 + 4x - 2 = 0, what are the solutions?

Answer 1

same as before, use the quadratic formula, as hinted \(\bf \textit{quadratic formula}\\
{\color{blue}{ 3}}x^2{\color{red}{ +4}}x{\color{green}{ -2}}=0
\qquad \qquad
x= \cfrac{ - {\color{red}{ b}} \pm \sqrt { {\color{red}{ b}}^2 -4{\color{blue}{ a}}{\color{green}{ c}}}}{2{\color{blue}{ a}}}\)

Answer 2

(-2+root 10)/3 and (-2-rrot 10)/3

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

-2
