Unknown Value of "x" in Quadratic Equation x2 + x + 2 = 0
Work with Steps for x2 + x + 2 = 0
The below work with steps may helpful for grade school students to understand how to find unknown or root values of x for quadratic equation x2 + x + 2 = 0 or to solve the worksheet problems.
step 1 Address the input parameters and values
Quadratic Equation : x2 + x + 2 = 0
step 2 Substitute a , b and c values in below formula
x = - b ± √b² - 4ac2a
=-(1) ± √(12 - 4 (1) (2))2(1)
=-1± √1 - 4 (1)(2)2
=-1± √1 - 82
=-1± √7 . i2
step 3 Solve the above expression for minus & plus values
x1 = -1 + √7 . i2
= -1 + 2.6458i2
x2 = -1 - √7 . i2
= -1 - 2.6458i2
step 4 By simplifying the above expressions for x1 & x2
x1 = -1/2+ 2.6458i/2
x1 = -0.5 + 1.3229i
x2 = -1/2- 2.6458i/2
x2 = -0.5 - 1.3229i
x1 = -0.5 + 1.3229i & x2 = -0.5 - 1.3229i are the roots for equation x2 + x + 2 = 0
