1. i got this so far but when i put it in its showing that it is wrong 3+ or -square root of -31/4
Solution
by using quadratic, x² - 3/4x = 5/2 + (- 3/4)² x² - 3/4x = (40 + 9)/16 (x - 3/4)² = 49//16
x - 3/4 = ± 7/4 = x - 3/4 - 7/4, = x - 10/4, = x - 5/2, = 2x - 5 = x - 3/4 + 7/4, = x + 4/4, = x + 1
Answer: x = 5/2, - 1; factors: (2x - 5)(x + 1)
