Solve this quadratic equation.

x 2 + 5x + 3 = 0

Answer 1

Answer. B :

Explanation:

Because I just took test

Answer 2

Question 1:

Consider the equation
`(3x-1)^2 = 5`

Taking square root on both the sides of the equation, we get

`(3x-1) = \pm √(5)`

Consider
`3x-1 = \sqrt 5`

adding '1' to both sides, we get

`3x = \sqrt 5 + 1`

Dividing by '3', we get

`x = (\sqrt5 + 1)/(3)`

Consider
`3x-1 = - \sqrt 5`

adding '1' to both sides, we get

`3x = - \sqrt 5 + 1`

Dividing by '3', we get

`x = (- \sqrt5 + 1)/(3)`

So, the solution set for this equation is
`x = (\sqrt5 + 1)/(3)` and
`x = (- \sqrt5 + 1)/(3)`.

Question 2:

Consider the equation
`x^2+5x+1 = 0`

We will use quadratic formula, we get

`x = (-5\pm √(5^2-4))/(2)`

`x = (-5\pm √(21))/(2)`

So, the solution set for this equation is
`x = (-5+ √(21))/(2), x = (-5- √(21))/(2)`.

Question 3:

Consider the equation
`x^2+5x+3=0`

By using the quadratic formula, we get

`x = (-5\pm √(5^2-12))/(2)`

`x = (-5\pm √(13))/(2)`

so, the solution set for this equation is
`x = (-5+ √(13))/(2), x = (-5- √(13))/(2)`.
