2x2 + 6x + 5 = 0 what are the real roots for the quadratic equation  

Sagot :

[tex]2x^2 + 6x + 5 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} }{2a} [/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-(6)+/- \sqrt{(6)^2 -4(2)(5)} }{2(2)} [/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-6+/- \sqrt{36 -40} }{4} [/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-6+/- \sqrt{-4} }{4}[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-6+/- i\sqrt{4} }{4}[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-6+/- 2i }{4}[/tex]
