Inga is solving 2x2 + 12x – 3 = 0. Which steps could she use to solve the quadratic equation? Select three options.

2(x2 + 6x + 9) = 3 + 18
2(x2 + 6x) = –3
2(x2 + 6x) = 3
x + 3 = Plus or minus StartRoot StartFraction 21 Over 2 EndFraction EndRoot
2(x2 + 6x + 9) = –3 + 9

Respuesta :

The correct answers are option 1, Option 3 and option 4 which are:-

2(x² + 6x + 9) = 3 + 18

2(x² + 6x) = 3

x+3 = ±√21/√2

What is a quadratic equation?

The polynomial having a degree of two or the maximum power of the variable in a polynomial will be 2 is defined as the quadratic equation and it will cut two intercepts on the graph at the x-axis.

We will check all three options one by one:-

2(x² + 6x + 9) = 3 + 18

2x² +  12x + 18 = 3 + 18

2x² + 12x -3 = 0

We are getting the original equation so it is correct.

2(x² + 6x) = 3

2x² + 12x = 3

2x² + 12x - 3 = 0

This is also right.

x+3 = ±√21/√2

Squaring on both the sides:-

( x + 3 )² = 21 / 2

x² + 6x + 9 = 21 / 2

2x² + 12x + 18 = 21

2x² + 12x = 21 - 18

2x² + 12x -3 = 0

This is also right

Therefore the correct answers are option 1, Option 3 and option 4 which are:-

2(x² + 6x + 9) = 3 + 18

2(x² + 6x) = 3

x+3 = ±√21/√2
