X^2-2x -3 =0
a =1 b =-2 and c = -3
x = - (-2) +/- sqrt (-2)^2 - 4(1)(-3)
--------------------------------------
2(1)
x = + 2 +/- sqrt [(4) - 4(-3)]
-------------------------------
2
x = +2 +/- sqrt [4 + 12]
--------------------------
2
x = +2 +/- sqrt[16]
-------------------
2
x = +2 +/- (4)
-------------
2
x = 2 + 4 or 2 -4
------- ------
2 2
x = 6/2 or -2/2
x = 3 or x = -1
If you factor the expression, your answer would look like this:
x + x^2 + 4
If you simplify the expression, your answer would look like this:
x^2 + x + 4
I hope this helps you

last option is correct
Answer: The total number of games sold by the GameStop is 14. That is 5 games of $43 and 9 games of $30.
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering some games of $43 were sold and others for $30 were also sold in arriving at the total of $485 sold.
If 5 games of $43 were sold it gives $215.
To get the difference, you subtract the amount sold for $43 from the total.
$485 - $215 = $270
To arrive at how many $30 games were sold;
$270 ÷ $30 per game = 9 games
Therefore, 5 games of $43 combined with 9 games of $30 gives a total of 14 games.
