Question

What are the solutions to the equation 3x2 + 15x = 18?

Answer 1

$3x {}^{2} + 15x = 18$

Divide the entire thing by 3

$x {}^{2} + 5x = 6$

$x {}^{2} + 5x - 6 = 0$

You can find the roots by using the quadratic formula or by using the form x²-Sx+P

$let \: \alpha \: and \: \beta \: be \: the \: roots$

Two numbers whose sum is -5 and product is -6

-6 and +1

Your answer is B
