Question

Solve the equation:(2x + 3)(x-1)=0Enter the solution with the highest value.

Answer 1

In order to solve the equation, since it is already factored, we just need to find the value of x that makes the factors be equal zero. So we have that:

`\begin{gathered} (2x+3)(x-1)=0 \\ (2x+3)=0\to2x=-3\to x=-(3)/(2) \\ (x-1)=0\to x=1 \end{gathered}`

So the solution is {-3/2, 1}.

The solution with the highest value is x = 1.
