Which method is the most efficient method to use to solve \[2x^2 + 5x - 11 = 0?\] A. Factoring B. Isolating the x^2 term and finding the square root of both sides C. Using the quadratic formula D. All three methods would be efficient

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

I prefer factoring.

skullpatrol Please don't comment if you don't know the answer.

OpenStudy (cheesecakekitten):

If the answer is factoring, then you say that. Not what you prefer.

OpenStudy (cheesecakekitten):

Forgive me If I was rude.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

For me factoring is the most efficient.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

The question asks for the most efficient. That means the fastest, right?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Once you learn the guidelines to follow it is much easier than the other methods.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

It is too easy to make a mistake using the quadratic formula

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

and choice C is just a joke :-)
