B. x E ( -5- square root 33/ 2 , -5 + square root 33 / 2 )
C. x E ( - 00, -5- square root 33 )/2 U ( -5 + square root 33, 00 / 2 )
D. x E ( -00, -5- square root 33 ) /2 U ( -5 + square root 33 , 00 /2 )

My answer is A.

Answer 1

Hello Stevie Can you please look over my work Thank you.

Answer 2

#1 - no idea, since you don't show the statement below

#2 C is correct

#3 since the discriminant is negative, there are no real roots, so none of the choices is correct. Typo?

#4 I get -2.21, -0.45
That is, (-4±√7)/3
Typo?

#5 Again, no real roots. Typo?

#6 A and B look the same to me, but if A is

((-5-√3)/2 , (-5+√3)/2)

then (A) is correct.

I guess B is (-5) - (√3/2),...?
