Question

Help?

Solve the following equation by completing the square.
6m^2 + 5m -3 = 0

Answer 1

what do youy think it is

Answer 2

m=−5 ± 97−−√ 12
m≈0.40407148,−1.23740482

Answer 3

srry had a little meeting. i have no idea how to even do the problem @rEdNeCkGiRl101

Answer 4

i gave u the answer

Answer 5

so i would personally change m to x

Answer 6

\[6x^2+5x-3=0\]

Answer 7

my answer need to be a fraction

Answer 8

@Faolan If you want an explanation on its solution let me know.

Answer 9

yup :)

Answer 10

@FaiqRaees ill take an explanantion pls

Answer 11

i was trying to explain it to you

Answer 12

oh ok

Answer 13

^_^ you can choose; them or me; i dont mind

Answer 14

okay lets first start by taking 3 to the right hand side

Answer 15

it is a fraction its m=−5 ± 97−−√ over_12

Answer 16

over -12 sorry my fault

Answer 17

Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by
6 the coefficient of the squared term

Answer 18

\[x^2 + 0.8333333333x - 0.5= 0\]

Answer 19

move the constant term (0.5) to the right
\[ x^2 + 0.83333333x - 0.5 + 0.5 = 0 +0.5\]

Answer 20

The x term is 0.8333333333x. Take half its coefficient (0.4166666667).
Square it (0.1736111111) and add it to both sides.

Answer 21

\[0.8333333333x + 0.1736111111 + x^2 = 0.5 + 0.1736111111\]

Answer 22

Combine like terms: \[0.5 + 0.1736111111 = 0.6736111111\]\[x^2 + 0.8333333333x + 0.1736111111= 0.6736111111\]

Answer 23

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
\[(x + 0.4166666667)(x + 0.4166666667) = 0.6736111111\]
Calculate the square root of the right side: \[0.82073815\]
Break this problem into two subproblems by setting
\[(x + 0.4166666667)=0.82073815~and-0.82073815\]

Answer 24

then you simplify

Answer 25

:)
\[(x+0.4166666667)=0.82073815\]\[(x+0.4166666667)=-0.82073815\]

Answer 26

id need to see your choices to tell you what was what

Answer 27

:)

Answer 28

i dont have any answer choices.....its a fill in the blank

Answer 29

ohh lame

Answer 30

\[x^2+5/6~x−0.5=0\]

Answer 31

\[x^2+5/6~x-0.5+0.5=0+0.5\]

Answer 32

then \[x^2+5/6~x=0.5\]

Answer 33

\[x^2 + 5/6~x=0.5\]
1/2 of 5/6 = 10/6 or 5/3

Answer 34

add 5/3 to both sides

Answer 35

i think he has the answer already

Answer 36

yes; but he is trying to get it explained

Answer 37

whatever. ill just go. ^_^ you have your answer anyway right? you dont need my help

Answer 38

il take the explanation. then I might b able to do other problems

Answer 39

orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Answer 40

oh sorry
