Solution:
3x - 5 = -2x²
2x² + 3x - 5 = 0
By splitting the middle term,
2x² - 2x + 5x - 5 = 0
2x (x - 1) + 5 (x - 1) = 0
(2x + 5)(x - 1) = 0
So, 2x + 5 = 0
x = -5/2
(OR)
x - 1 = 0
x = 1
The roots of 2x² + 3x - 5 = 0 are: A. x = 1 & B. x = -5/2
Explanation:
➡
(2x+5)(x-1) = 0
one of these multiple should be 0 so the equation is equal to 0
therefore if 2x + 5 = 0 then
and if x+1 = 0 then
