Which graph would help you find the solutions of 2 – x2 = –x?

Lelechka [254]

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic graph will surely help you find the solutions

X2-x-2=0

x1=2 x2= -1

Substitute each of the x value in the original equation to get the y value

(2)^2-(2)-2= 0 (2,0)

(-1)^2-(-1)-2=-2 (-1,-2)

plot the coordinates on the graph,the graph should be a curve

Solve 3x2 = −12x − 15. x = −4 ± 2i x = −4 ± i x = −2 ± 2i x = −2 ± i

diamong [38]

ANSWER

$x = - 2 \pm i$

EXPLANATION

We use the method of completing the squares.

The equation is
$3 {x}^{2} = - 12x - 15$

We rewrite the above equation to obtain;

$3 {x}^{2} + 12x = - 15$

We divide through by 3 to obtain;

${x}^{2} + 4x = - 5$

We add half the coefficient of
$x$

to both sides of the equation to get,

${x}^{2} + 4x + {2}^{2} = - 5 + {2}^{2}$

The right hand side is now a perfect square.

${(x + 2)}^{2} = - 1$

We now take square root of both sides to get;

$x + 2 = \pm \sqrt{ - 1}$

We add -2 to both sides,

$x = - 2 \pm \sqrt{ - 1}$

We simplify to obtain,

$x = - 2 \pm i$
