Verified Answer :

The answer is (2x + 3)(x - 1)

2x² + x - 3 = 2x² +3x - 2x - 3 =
                  = 2x * x - 2x + 3x - 3 =
                  = 2x(x - 1) + 3(x - 1) =
                  = (2x + 3)(x - 1)

Answer:

A. \((x-1)(2x+3)\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the quadratic equation \(2x^2+x-3\).

We will find the roots of the equation quadratic \(2x^2+x-3=0\).

The roots of the quadratic equation \(ax^2+bx+c=0\) is given by \(x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\).

On comparing the equations, we get,

a= 2, b= 1, c= -3.

Substituting the values gives us the roots are,

\(x=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4\times 2\times (-3)}}{2\times 2}\)

i.e. \(x=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1+24}}{4}\)

i.e. \(x=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{25}}{4}\)

i.e. \(x=\frac{-1\pm 5}{4}\)

i.e. \(x=\frac{-1+5}{4}\) and \(x=\frac{-1-5}{4}\)

i.e. \(x=\frac{4}{4}\) and \(x=\frac{-6}{4}\)

i.e. x = 1 and \(x=\frac{-3}{2}\)

Thus, the factors of the quadratic equation are \((x-1)\) and \((2x+3)[/tex].

Hence, the factored form is [tex](x-1)(2x+3)\).
