Answer:

B) x = 3 or x = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

2 x^2 - x = 15

Subtract 15 from both sides:

2 x^2 - x - 15 = 0

x = (1 ± sqrt((-1)^2 - 4×2 (-15)))/(2×2) = (1 ± sqrt(1 + 120))/4 = (1 ± sqrt(121))/4:

x = (1 + sqrt(121))/4 or x = (1 - sqrt(121))/4

sqrt(121) = sqrt(11^2) = 11:

x = (1 + 11)/4 or x = (1 - 11)/4

(1 + 11)/4 = 12/4 = 3:

x = 3 or x = (1 - 11)/4

(1 - 11)/4 = -10/4 = -5/2:

Answer:  x = 3 or x = -5/2

If -a=b and a+c=d then b+c=d
Effectus [21]
This is incorrect

-a = b
a + c = d
b + c = d is incorrect because it says a + c and not -a + c.

If you multiply the first line with -1 then you would get a = -b
So the final line would actually be -b+c=d
