The equation is:
6x^2-1=2x
Now using the formula:

Here,
a=6
b=-2
c=-1
For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.
First, we need to compute the discriminant : d=b^2-4a*c...
Solving we get d=28
Discriminant d=28 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions:
The formula is:

By substituting the values of a,b,c in the above equation we get the answers as:
x=0.207625
x=-0.274291
