Question

What is the product of the 2 solutions of the equation x^2+3x-21=0

Answer 1

X²+3x-21=0

1) we solve this square equation:
x=[-3⁺₋√(9+84)] / 2=(-3⁺₋√93)/2
We have two solutions:
x₁=(-3-√93)/2
x₂=(-3+√93)/2

2) we compute the product of the 2 solutions found.
[(-3-√93)/2][(-3+√93)/2] =(-3-√93)(-3+√93) / 4=
=(9-93)/4=-84/4=-21

Answer: the product of the 2 solutions of this equation is -21
