Answer:3,-3

Step-by-step explanation:

begin by simplifing the expression. So, the 2 x's will cancel out in the expression. you should have 7=2x^2-11. Then Subtract the 7 from both sides so you cna use the quadratic formula. This gives you 2x^2-18=0. Using the formula {-b+/sqrt(b^2-4ac)}/2a this gives us {-0+/sqrt(0^2-4*2*-18)}/2*2 this simplifies to 0+/- 12 all over 4. +12/4=3 and -12/4=-3.
