Quadratic equation

Question

1. 6v²+3v+6=

Answer 1

Micheal, 

 

I am going to assume that 6v²+3v+6 = 0,

 

Then I am going to divide every term on both sides by 3

 

2v²+v+2 = 0

 

Have you worked with complex solutions?  If not, then my assumption that this was = 0 was wrong.

 

If you have worked with complex solutions, then you can use the Quadratic Formula to find 

 

that x = -(1/4) + i sqrt(15)   and   x = -(1/4) - i sqrt(15)

 

Probably we need the number to the right of the = sign.  :-)
