Question

Write a quadratic equation whose roots are -3 and 1/2

Answer 1

See below

Explanation:

Use the roots given to make this :

(x+3) (x-1/2) = 0

you can do the multiplication (if required) to get

x^2 + 2.5x - 1.5 = 0 now you can multiply by 2 to get rid of the decimals

2x^2 + 5x - 3 = 0

All three are correct......pick the format you want ....
