MATH WIZARDS???? please help me here!!! about inequality…please….POINTS HERE WAITING….?

Math wizards!!! POINTS waiting here! please help me….?

i am in need of help in understanding quadratic inequality. this is our lesson in mathematics this day. but our teacher didn’t explained this much in our class. and, unfortunately, he gave us an assignment which i do not know how to solve because his voice is to soft that i cannot hear. it is also because my seat is very far from his place in front of our room. guys, i need you to help me here. i will follow as you explain. please help…

here’s the equation:

solve the inequality:

x^2 + 3x < 15 please show me how you did it so i can understand. please... oh, points for the one who could give me the most informative answer. thanks in advance! hoping for answers...

x²+3x<15 x²+3x-15<0 ......................................................................................................... now,you will solve it as if it was x²+3x-15=0 and the solutions that you will accept,must be <0.so,you have: ......................................................................................................... x²+3x-15=0 d=3²-4(1)(-15) d=9+60 d=69 so, x1=[-3+sq.rt.of69]/2 the sq.rt.of 69is not perfect.but it's bigger than -3,so the first result of x is possitive. now,you will find the second result of x,puting instead of + a - : x2=[-3-sq.rt.of69]/2.as you can see,the x2is a negative number so,this is the solution that we will accept. so,if we want x to be <0,the solutions of x are: x<[-3-sq.rt69]2 i hope that what i did is right,and that you understood... sq.rt. means square root

x^2 + 3x < 15 Subtract 15 from both sides x^2 + 3x -15 < 0 Now you have a quadratic eqation! Solve this equation, you'll get 2 roots 2.65, -5.65 since x^2 + 3x -15 < 0 so, your answer is -5.65 < x < 2.65

hello…here goes.

x^2 +3x -15<0 then complete the square x^2 +3x +(3/2)^2 -(3/2)^2 -15<0(for the third and 4th terms take the coefficient of x and then divide by 2) next,combine first 3 terms together. (x+(3/2))^2 - 17.25<0 (x+(3/2))^2<17.25 then when u square root u hv to use modulus so....modulus(x+(3/2))< square root of 17.25. next u hv to remove modulus...... u'll end up with.... -(square root of 17.25)< x+(3/2)
