the answer is (-7sqrt(41))/4

Explanation:

you can't take out so you have to use the quadratic formula. formula:(-bsqrt(b^2-4ac))/(2a) so plug it in wiht the numbers: -7sqrt((7)^2-4(2)(1))/(2(2)) now solve so you'll get:-7sqrt(49-8)/(4) now you can simplify 41 anymore so you leave it inside. and there you go. 41 comes from 49-8

Explanation:

2x^2 + 7x + 1
Since you can not use middle-term techniques over here.. So u can use the formula of discriminant:

myselfmyself

The equation is :

ax^2+bx+c
Here a,b,c are the coefficients of x^2 , x and the constant respectively,,,
