Find all real or imaginary solutions to each equation.
Use the method of your choice

w ^2 = -225

w^2=-225

Or,w=√(-225)

Or,w=15√(-1)

Or,w=15i

86. 3y^2 + 4y -1 = 0

3y^2 + 4y -1 = 0

The roots of the given quadratic equation (by using quadratic formula) are given as follows:

y=(-4±√(4^2-4×3×(-1) ))/(2×3)=(-4±√28)/6=(-4±2√7)/6=(-2±√7)/3

96. √7 x + 29 = x + 3
√7 x + 29 = x + 3

Or,√7 x-x=3-29 [On re-arranging the terms]

Or,(√7-1)x=-26

Or,x=-26/(√7-1)

Or,x=(-26(√7+1))/(√7-1)(√7+1)

Or,x=(-26(√7+1))/6

Or,x=(-13(√7+1))/3
