Question

I need help, if I have the equation 3x^2+2x+5 what are the zeros?

Answer 1

The first step your gonna wanna take is set the equation equal to 0 and factor the equation

Answer 2

Wait

Answer 3

And that's all I've gotten so far

Answer 4

This equation is not factorable so you’ll have to complete the square or use the quadratic formula, or even graph

Answer 5

Wait it's not factorable?

Answer 6

I think it is factorable

Answer 7

Wait no it's not

Answer 8

1 3
5 1

-1 -3
5 1

1 3
-5 -1

-1 -3
-5 -1

yeah it's not factorable

Answer 9

with integers anyway

Answer 10

Do you know the quadratic formula?

Answer 11

First, make sure to graph the polynomial (Y=3x^2+2x+5). Then, you can find the zeros where the line touches the x-axis (x-intercepts).

Answer 12

If you're having trouble graphing it manually, which would take a while, I suggest using something like a graphing calculator to assist you.
