x^{2}+2x+3-\frac{3}{2}x>0
Subtract \frac{3}{2}x from both sides.
x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+3>0
Combine 2x and -\frac{3}{2}x to get \frac{1}{2}x.
x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+3=0
To solve the inequality, factor the left hand side. Quadratic polynomial can be factored using the transformation ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right), where x_{1} and x_{2} are the solutions of the quadratic equation ax^{2}+bx+c=0.
x=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}±\sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}-4\times 1\times 3}}{2}
All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. Substitute 1 for a, \frac{1}{2} for b, and 3 for c in the quadratic formula.
x=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}±\sqrt{-\frac{47}{4}}}{2}
Do the calculations.
0^{2}+\frac{1}{2}\times 0+3=3
Since the square root of a negative number is not defined in the real field, there are no solutions. Expression x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+3 has the same sign for any x. To determine the sign, calculate the value of the expression for x=0.
x\in \mathrm{R}
The value of the expression x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+3 is always positive. Inequality holds for x\in \mathrm{R}.
