Question

2x^2+7x-15=0

Answer 1

First step is to factorize the given expression as follows:
2x^2 + 7x - 15 = (2x-3)(x+5)
This means that the two roots of the equation are 3/2 (or 1.5) and -5

Now, we will get r and s:
we are given that the value of r is greater than the value of s, since 1.5 is greater than -5, therefore:
r = 1.5
s = -5
