Question

Solve the Quadratic

Solve for x. Write in simplified radical form.

x^2– 7x – 4 = 0

Solution 1:
Solution 2:

Answer 1

Answer:

$solution 1: \ \frac{7+\sqrt{65}}{2};$

$solution2: \ \frac{7-\sqrt{65} }{2}.$

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-7x-4=0;

D=[b²-4ac]=49+16=65.

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x=\frac{7+\sqrt{65}}{2} \\x=\frac{7-\sqrt{65}}{2} \end{array}$
