help please Which method is the most efficient method to use to solve 2x^2 + 4x- 3 =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

@HannahA @Hero

OpenStudy (welshfella):

this will not factor so A is out.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

so is D what do you think about B and C?

OpenStudy (ayanaortega):

i think it is B

OpenStudy (welshfella):

if we isolate 2x^2 we get 2x^2 = 3 - 4x would that help?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

taking square root of both sides would complicate the problem further
