6x^2-10+27x=180
6x^2+27x-10-180=0
6x^2+27x-190=0
using the quadratic equation:x+=+%28-b+%2B-+sqrt%28+b%5E2-4%2Aa%2Ac+%29%29%2F%282%2Aa%29+we get:
x=(-27+-sqrt[27^2-4*6*-190])/2*6
x=(-27+-sqrt[729-4560])/12
x=(-27+-sqrt[5289)/12
x=(-27+-72.7255)/12
x=(-27+72.7255)/12
x=45.7255/12
x=3.81 answer.
x=(-27-72.7255)/12
x=(-99.7255)/12
x=-8.31 answer.
