Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

This sounds like there should be choices. I will make a couple of suggestions.

Suggestions

1. You can't factor this by using the factors of 2 (like +/- 2 or +/- 1.  

2. You must use the quadratic equation.

3. You don't get rational numbers.

4. You do get real numbers.

5. To confirm the equation, you can graph it.

6. You could complete the square which is rather the long way of doing it.
