Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation (work shown, graph etc)
Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons:



For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

Discriminant d=361 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 0.666666666666667, -0.6. Here's your graph:

x=15x^2-6
15X^2-X-6=0
(5X+3)(3X-2)=0
5X+3=0
5X=-3
X=-3/5 ANS.
3X-2=0
3X=2
X=2/3 ANS.
