Question

A Solution of the equation,
3x2 + 2x + 1 = 0 is

Answer 1

X=0

Explanation:

Use PEMDAS to get rid of some things. Do 3 x 2 = 6. Then distribute the like terms to one side seperating 2x and "0": +1 ---> 0-1 = -1. Now divide... 2x/2 = x (cancels out) and 0/2 = 0. Therefore X=0. But I'm not a computer so double check your answer.

Answer 2

x = -3.5

Explanation:

POE = PROPERTY OF EQUALITY

3*2 + 2x + 1 = 0

6 + 2x + 1 = 0 ## ^ Multiplication

7 + 2x = 0 ## ^ Combine like-terms

2x = -7 ## ^ Subtraction POE

x = -3.5 ## ^ Division POE
