b). m-2m²=-120 m=10,8,1,-2,-7.5

Answer 1

Hello! All you need to do for this problem is pug in the numbers given in the problem and simplify both sides of the equation. To determine if the number is a solution, remember that a solution makes the equation true. So if you plug in and simplify and both sides of the equation are equal to each other, then it is true and the number you plugged in is a solution!
