Answer: [tex]x_1=1.63\\x_2=-2.13[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The quadratic formula is shown below:
[tex]x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
2. Given the quadratic equation given in the problem, you have that:
[tex]a=-2\\b=-1\\c=7[/tex]
3. Therefore, when you substitute the values shown above, you obtain the following result:
[tex]x=\frac{-(-1)+/-\sqrt{(-1)^{2}-4(-2)(7)}}{2(-2)}[/tex]
[tex]x_1=1.63\\x_2=-2.13[/tex]
Answer:
x = 1.637 or x = -2.137
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is:
-2x²-x+7 = 0
ax²+bx+c = 0 is general quadratic equation.
x = (-b±√b²-4ac) / 2a is quadratic equation to solve the quadratic equations.
Comparing general equation with given equation , we have
a = -2 , b = -1 and c= 7
Putting the given values in quadratic formula, we have
x = (-(-1)±√(-1)²-4(-2)(7) ) / 2(-2)
x = (1±√1+56) / (-4)
x = (1±√57) / (-4)
x = (1±7.549) / (-4)
x = 1-7.549 / (-4) or x = (1+7.549) / (-4)
x = -6.549 / -4 or 8.549 / (-4)
x = 1.637 or x = -2.137 is the solution.
