Help solving equation?

Question

If the equation 2x^2+4x=-3 is being solved, is -1+or-1/2i√2 the answer? If this is not the answer, showing me what the correct answer is and how to get that answer will be very helpful. Thank you, in advance also.

Answer 1

2x² + 4x + 3 = 0
x = [- 4 ± √(16 - 24)] / 4
x = [- 4 ± √(- 8) ] / 4
x = [- 4 ± √(8 i²)] / 4
x = [- 4 ± i √(8)] / 4
x = [- 4 ± i (2√2] / 4
x = - 1 ± i √(2) / 2
This is similar to your answer.

Answer 2

2x^2+4x+3=0 is a quadratic equation in the form ax^2+bx+c=0 using quadratic formula

x = [ -b - √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / [ 2a ] ; [ -b + √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / [ 2a ]

the answer is -1 - i √2 / 2 and -1 + i√2 / 2
