Answer:
x=-1/2

x=-1/2
Answer:
-2,-3
Step-by-step explanation:
(- 1 + √3)/2
rationalise the denominator by multiplying the numerator/denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.
the conjugate of 1 + √3 is 1 - √3
(1 - √3)/(1 + √3)(1 - √3) = (1 - √3)/( 1² - (√3)²) = (1 - √3)/(1 - 3) = (1 - √3)/(- 2)
multiply numerator/denominator by (- 1)
=(-1 +√3)/2
