Hi there,
6x=2-5x^2
Rearrange into y = ax^2 + bx + c
5x^2 + 6x - 2 + 0
You must use the quadratic formula

a = -5 b = -6 c = 2

..........

..........
x = -1.47 or 0.27
--------------------
x^2 + 6x = -8
x^2 + 6x + 8 = 0
(x + 4)(x + 2) = 0
x + 4 = 0
x = -4
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
--------------------
x = 6x^2 - 3
6x^2 - x - 3 = 0
Use quadratic formula

a = 6 b = -1 c = -3

...................

.....................
x = 0.8 or -0.63
Hope this helps :-)
