1. Problem Description

The problem is to solve the quadratic equation x2+3x=2(3x)x^2 + 3x = -2(-3-x).

2. Solution Steps

First, expand the right side of the equation:
x2+3x=2(3)2(x)x^2 + 3x = -2(-3) - 2(-x)
x2+3x=6+2xx^2 + 3x = 6 + 2x
Next, move all terms to one side to set the equation equal to zero:
x2+3x2x6=0x^2 + 3x - 2x - 6 = 0
x2+x6=0x^2 + x - 6 = 0
Now, factor the quadratic equation:
(x+3)(x2)=0(x + 3)(x - 2) = 0
Set each factor equal to zero and solve for xx:
x+3=0x + 3 = 0 or x2=0x - 2 = 0
x=3x = -3 or x=2x = 2

3. Final Answer

x=3,2x = -3, 2
