## anonymous one year ago A quadratic equation is shown below: 3x2 − 16x + 2 = 0 Part A: Describe the solution(s) to the equation by just determining the radicand. Show your work. (5 points) Part B: Solve 9x2 + 3x − 2 = 0 by using an appropriate method. Show the steps of your work, and explain why you chose the method used. (5 points)

here

Hmm?

4. anonymous

do u know what radicand is

5. anonymous

Isn't it kind of like the square root of a number?

6. anonymous

its the dumber under the square root symbol $\sqrt{3}$ for example the 3

7. anonymous

Yeah

8. anonymous

i meant number

9. anonymous

Alright

10. anonymous

is the 2 in 3x2 an exponent

11. anonymous

Yes

12. anonymous

ok

13. anonymous

How would we figure out B?

14. anonymous

I think I kind of have A solved, there's two solutions, I just gotta figure out how to show my work with it, but i'm stuck on B

15. anonymous

well lets solve it

16. anonymous

I got x=1/3, -2/3

17. anonymous

well u can just plug it into the quadratic formula for b to show ur work

18. anonymous

I got x = 1 over 3, -2 over 3

19. anonymous

But I need a description of why I chose that and i need to show my work

20. anonymous

You there? @DaBest21
