12z%5E2%2Bz-6=0 Start with the given equation

%284z%2B3%29%283z-2%29=0 Factor the left side (note: if you need help with factoring, check out this solver)



Now set each factor equal to zero:
4z%2B3=0 or 3z-2=0

z=-3%2F4 or z=2%2F3 Now solve for z in each case


So our answers are

z=-3%2F4 or z=2%2F3
