2x^2=9-3x Find the factors

Mathematics

d1i1m1o1n [39]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = -3, $ \frac{3}{2} $

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is: $ 2x^2 = 9 - 3x $

This can be written as: $ 2x^2 + 3x - 9 = 0 $

To solve a quadratic equation of the form $ ax^2 + bx + c = 0 $ we use the formula:

           $ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} $

Here, a = 2; b = 3; c = - 9

Therefore, the roots of the equation are:

$ x = \frac{- 3 \pm \sqrt{9 - 4(2)(-9)}}{2(2)} $

$ \implies x = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{81}}{4} $

$ \implies x = \frac{-3 \pm 9}{4} $

We get two values of 'x', viz.,

x = $ \frac{-3 + 9}{4} $ and $ \frac{- 3 - 9}{4} $

$ \implies x = \frac{6}{4} \hspace{5mm} \& \hspace{5mm} \frac{-12}{4} $

⇒ x = -3, 3/2

Since the factors of the quadratic equation is asked, we write it as:

(x + 3)(x - $ \frac{3}{2} $) = 0

because, if (x - a)(x - b) are the factors of a quadratic equation, then 'a' and 'b' are its roots.

Multiply (x + 3) and (x - $ \frac{3}{2} $ to see that this indeed is the given quadratic equation.

You can use estimation.

80×130=10,400

Clearly 10,400 and 94 are way off.
