Question

Consider this quadratic equation. 2x2 − 1 = 3x + 4 Which equation correctly applies the quadratic formula?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{-(-3)+-\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic formula: $\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

$2x^2-1=3x+4\\\\2x^2-3x-5=0\\\\\\frac{-(-3)+-\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2)} \\\frac{3+-\sqrt{9+40} }{4}$

$x = \frac{3+-7}{4}$
