Question 279957: I'm not sure how to solve a particular problem using the quadratic formula
Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Here's an example:
3x^2=5x-4
3x^2-5x=4=0

x=(5+-sqrt[-5^2-4*3*1])/2*3
x=(5+-sqrt[25-12])/6
x=(5+-sqrt13)/6
x=(5+-3.61)/6
x=(5+3.61)/6
x=8.61/6
x=1.434 ans.
x=(5-3.61)/6
x=1.39/6
x=.232 ans.
