Given equation is 2x^2-5x=3
2x^2-5x-3=0
Now the coefficient of x^2 and constant multiplying, we get
-6.
Then, we find two numbers that numbers will be added we get -5(the coefficient of x)and multiply that numbers will become -6.
Therefore, that numbers are -6, 1
Now the given equation becomes 2x^2-6x+x-3=0.
(We take common number from first two variables.)
i.e., 2x(x-3) + 1(x-3)=0
i.e., (2x+1)=0,(x-3)=0 are the factors of the given eqn.
Hence x=-1/2 and x=3.
(OR)
The problem also solve by using the formula

In this equation a=2, b=-5, c=-3 and substitute these values in that formulae we will get x=-1/2 and x=3.
