Question

3 What are the solutions to the equation? x2 = 3x + 10

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 3x +10

x^2 - 3x - 10 = 0

find the 2 numbers that subtract to be 3 and multiply to be -10

the 2 numbers are -5 and 2

(x -5)(x + 2)

find the zeroes or roots or solutions...

by setting the 2 equations to 0 but you can just switch the signs. (keep in mind that the amount of solutions needed is given by the highest power (x^2))

x = 5, -2

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = 3x + 10

2x - 3x = 10

-x = 10

x = - 10
