Answer:

Explanation:

Given Equation

3x^2 + x = - 2x - 7

Solution

Add 2x + 7 to both sides

3x^2 +x + 2x + 7 = -2x - 7 + 2x + 7 Combine like terms

3x^2 + 3x + 7 = 0

Givens

  • a = 3
  • b = 3
  • c = 7

x = (-b +/(√b^2 - 4ac))/2

x = (-3 +/- (√3^2 - 4(3 *7)) / 2*3

x = (- 3 +/- (9 - 84)) / 2 *3

x = (- 3 +/- √ (-75))/6

x = (- 3 +/- 8.660i ) / 6

x = -.5 +/-1.443i

Answer

x = -.5 + 1.443.i

x = -.5 - 1.443i
