Which of the following would be the most logical first step to solving this

quadratic equation?

2x2-x + 2 = - 11

O

A. Divide both sides by x.

O

B. Take the square root of both sides.

O

C. Set up smaller equations using the zero product rule.

O

D. Add 11 to both sides.

D is correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct option is D.

The standard quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c=0

Where a and b are coefficients and c is constant.

It means that constant are on the L. H. S and there is 0 on the right hand side.

Therefore to make it a quadratic equation first of all you have to add 11 at both sides so that the R. H. S becomes 0.

The given equation is:

2x2-x + 2 = - 11

If we add 11 on both sides the equation will be:

2x2-x + 2 + 11 = - 11+11

2x^2-x+13=0

Thus the correct option is D
