The Quadratic Formula, x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4 times a times c, all over 2 times a, was used to solve the equation 3x2 + 4x − 2 = 0. Fill in the missing denominator of the solution. negative 2 plus or minus the square root of 10, all over blank
A.−4
B.2
C.3
D.6

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² + 4x - 2 = 0

[-4 +- sqrt(4² - 4(3)(-2))]/(2×3)

[-4 +- sqrt(40)]/6

[-4 +- 2sqrt(10)]/6

Simplifying, we get:

[-2 +- sqrt(10)]/3

By using a quadratic equation the missing denominator of the solution is 4 plus or minus the square root of 2, all over is (B).2

What is a Quadratic Equation?

For a Quadratic Equation [tex]$a x^{2}+b x+c=0$[/tex]

By Formula Method we get

[tex]$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$[/tex]

So we have a Quadratic Equation that is [tex]$2 x^{2}-8 x+7=0$[/tex]

On Comparing we get,

a = 2

b = -8

c = 7

By substituting a, b, and c values we get

[tex]&x=\frac{-(-8) \pm \sqrt{(-8)^{2}-4(2)(7)}}{2(2)} \\[/tex]

[tex]&x=\frac{8 \pm \sqrt{64-56}}{4} \\[/tex]

[tex]&x=\frac{8 \pm \sqrt{8}}{4} \\[/tex]

[tex]&x=\frac{8 \pm 2 \sqrt{2}}{4} \\[/tex]

[tex]&x=2\left(\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{2}}{4}\right) \\[/tex]

[tex]&x=\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{2}}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, by using a quadratic equation the missing denominator of the solution 4 plus or minus the square root of 2, all over is (B).2

Hence the correct answer is option B.2
