Accepted Solution
A:
We have the following equation: 2x2 - 6x + 7 = 0 Using the resolver we have: x = (- b +/- root (b ^ 2 - 4 * a * c)) / (2 * a) Substituting values we have: x = (- (- 6) +/- root ((- 6) ^ 2 - 4 * 2 * 7)) / (2 * 2) Rewriting we have: x = (6 +/- root (36 - 56)) / (4) x = (6 +/- root (-20)) / (4) x = (6 +/- root (-4 * 5)) / (4) x = (6 +/- 2raiz (-5)) / (4) x = (6 +/- 2raiz (-1 * 5)) / (4) x = (6 +/- 2raiz (5) * i) / (4) x = (3 +/- root (5) * i) / (2) The solutions are: x1 = (3 + root (5) * i) / (2) x2 = (3 - root (5) * i) / (2) Answer: x1 = (3 + root (5) * i) / (2) x2 = (3 - root (5) * i) / (2)
