Question

`(1)/(3) {x}^(2) = - 3`

The solution to the equation is,,,
A. X = 3
B. No solution
C. X= -3
​

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

There is no solution to this equation. You get to a point where the equation becomes

x^2 = - 9

That occurs because you multiply both sides of the equation by 3.

But here's the problem.

You are going to have to take the square root of -9. At beginning levels, you don't want to be doing that. So for now, there is no answer.
