The Quadratic Formula gives which roots for the equation 2x2 + x - 6 = 0?

x1 = 2, x2=-3.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + x-6=0

a=1, b=1, c=-6

x1 = (-b+sqrt (b^2-4ac)) / 2a

x1 = (-1+sqrt (1^2-4*1 * (-6)) / 2*1

x1 = (-1+sqrt (1+24)) / 2

x1 = (-1+sqrt (25)) / 2

x1 = (-1+5) / 2

x1=4/2

x1 = 2

x2 = (-b-sqrt (b^2-4ac)) / 2a

x2 = (-1-5) / 2

x2 = -6/2

x2=-3
