Hi there! :)
Answer:
x = 1/2 or -7.
Step-by-step explanation:
(I'm assuming the expression is 2x² + 13x - 7 = 0)
Factor the equation to solve for the possible values of "x":
2x² + 13x - 7 = 0
When factored, we get:
(2x - 1) ( x + 7) = 0
Use the Zero-Product property to solve for the roots:
2x - 1 = 0
2x = 1
x = 1/2.
-----------
x + 7 = 0
x = -7.
Therefore, possible values of x are x = -1/2, 7.
