Solve 2x2 + 5x = 12. a. x= three over two and x = −4 b. x = 2 and x = −3 c. x = −6 and x = 5 d. x = one over two and x = one over three

A. x= three over two and x = −4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 + 5x = 12

I will use complete the square

Divide each side by 2

2x^2 /2 + 5/2 x = 12/2

x^2 +5/2 x =6

Take 5/2 , divide by 2 and then square it

5/2 ÷2 = 5/2   (5/4) ^2 = 25/16

Add this to both sides

x^2 + 5/2 x + 25/16 = 6 + 25/16

(x+5/4)^2 = 6 *16/16 + 25/16

(x+5/4)^2 = 96/16 +25/16

(x+5/4)^2 = 121/16

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x+5/4)^2) = sqrt(121/16)

x+5/4 = ±11/4

Subtract 5/4 from each side

x+5/4-5/4 = ±11/4 -5/4

x =  ±11/4 -5/4

x = -11/4 - 5/4      and x = 11/4 - 5/4

x = -16/4 = -4      and x = 6/4 = 3/2

step-by-step explanation:

a complex number is a number that can be expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers, and i is a solution of the equation x2 = −1. because no real number satisfies this equation, i is called an imaginary number. has no real solution, since the square of a real number cannot be negative.
