HP Pavilion 15 cs3073cl laptop dual monitor issue

[Enterprise71]

Hi, I am using HP Pavilion 15 cs3073cl currently and have some questions about the dual monitor connection.

So, as to my knowledge, this laptop has 1 x HDMI, 1 x USB-C type, 2 x USB-A type ports. I have two monitors that I hope to connect to my laptop. The first laptop could be easily connected by using HDMI.

However, the issue came from when I tried to connect the second monitor. I mainly tried purchasing HP Spectre Travel Dock for USB-C type which has HDMI port I can connect to. It didn't work with no signal. I searched a bit and I think my USB-C type doesn't have a function to export video signal, is this right?

If so, would there be any way I can connect my second monitor using USB-A-type ports? I found there are adapters that convert USB-A to HDMI but not sure if that will work or just going to have no signal just like what I've tried with the USB-C type port.

Thank you so much!
