Question

2x2 - 2 = 2x + 3
Which of the following is a solution to the equation above?

  1. 2
  2. 1 - square root of 11
  3. 1 half space plus space square root of 11
  4. fraction numerator 1 space plus space square root of 11 over denominator 2 end fraction

The correct answer is: fraction numerator 1 space plus space square root of 11 over denominator 2 end fraction


    If the equation ax squared space plus space bx space plus space straight c space equals space 0 is given then roots of the quadratic equation are
    straight x space equals space fraction numerator negative straight b space plus-or-minus space square root of straight b squared space minus space 4 ac end root over denominator 2 straight a end fraction
    Step 1: Here equation is 2 straight x squared space minus space 2 straight x space minus space 5 space equals space 0 and on comparison with
    ax squared space plus space bx space plus space straight c space equals space 0 we get a = 2 , b = -2 and c = -5
    Step 2: calculation of roots
    straight x space equals space fraction numerator 2 space plus-or-minus space square root of left parenthesis negative 2 right parenthesis squared space minus space 4 left parenthesis 2 right parenthesis space left parenthesis negative 5 right parenthesis end root over denominator 2 left parenthesis 2 right parenthesis end fraction
x space equals space fraction numerator 2 space plus-or-minus space square root of 4 space plus space 40 end root over denominator 4 end fraction
x space equals space fraction numerator 2 space plus-or-minus space square root of 4 space cross times space 11 end root over denominator 4 end fraction
straight x space equals space fraction numerator 2 space plus-or-minus space 2 space square root of 11 over denominator 4 end fraction
x space equals space fraction numerator 1 space plus-or-minus space square root of 11 over denominator 2 end fraction
    The roots of the equation 2 straight x squared space minus space 2 straight x space minus space 5 space equals space 0 are straight x space equals space fraction numerator 1 space plus space square root of 11 over denominator 2 end fraction and straight x space equals space fraction numerator 1 space minus space square root of 11 over denominator 2 end fraction.
