You have come to the correct place if you are looking to solve the quadratic equation negative 18x squared minus 20x minus 2 equals 0, also known as -18x² - 20x - 2 = 0. Below, we walk you through how to find the answer.
To find the two possible answers to -18x^2 - 20x - 2 = 0, we will start by rewriting the equation in factored form. Then, we will create two separate equations that we can use to solve -18x² - 20x - 2 = 0.
Below is negative 18x squared minus 20x minus 2 in factored form. As you can see, -18x² - 20x - 2 has been grouped into two sets of parentheses.
-(18x + 2)(x + 1)
Next, we set each set of parentheses equal to 0 and solve for x to get the two answers to -18x^2 - 20x - 2 = 0.
(18x + 2) = 0
x1 = -1/9
(x + 1) = 0
x2 = -1
