Answer 1

To solve the quadratic equation 2x^2 - 5x - 3 = 0, we can use the quadratic formula:

x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

Where a = 2, b = -5, and c = -3.

Plugging in the values, we get:

x = (5 ± √((-5)^2 - 4*2*(-3))) / 2*2
x = (5 ± √(25 + 24)) / 4
x = (5 ± √49) / 4
x = (5 ± 7) / 4

This gives us two possible solutions:

x1 = (5 + 7) / 4 = 3
x2 = (5 - 7) / 4 = -0.5

So, the solutions to the equation 2x^2 - 5x - 3 = 0 are x = 3 and x = -0.5.
