To solve the equation \(-x^2 - 3x = 5 - 3x\), we first simplify it:
-
Move all terms to one side: \(-x^2 - 3x - 5 + 3x = 0\) \(-x^2 - 5 = 0\)
-
Rearrange: \(-x^2 = 5\)
-
Divide by -1: \(x^2 = -5\)
-
Take the square root: \(x = \pm \sqrt{-5}\)
-
Express using the imaginary unit \(i\): \(x = \pm i \sqrt{5}\)
Thus, the answer is:
\(\pm i \sqrt{5}\)
