3x%5E2=10x

3x%5E2-10x=0

Now use the quadratic formula to solve

x+=+%28-b%2B-sqrt%28b%5E2-4ac%29%29%2F%282a%29

x+=+%28-%28-10%29%2B-sqrt%28%28-10%29%5E2-4%283%29%280%29%29%29%2F%282%283%29%29

x+=+%2810%2B-sqrt%28100-%280%29%29%29%2F%286%29

x+=+%2810%2B-sqrt%28100%29%29%2F6

x+=+%2810%2Bsqrt%28100%29%29%2F6 or x+=+%2810-sqrt%28100%29%29%2F6

x+=+%2810%2B10%29%2F6 or x+=+%2810-10%29%2F6

x+=+20%2F6 or x+=+0%2F6

x+=+10%2F3 or x+=+0


So the solutions are x+=+10%2F3 or x+=+0
