How do you solve 5x² - 6x – 3 = 0?

1 Answer

x_1=6/10+(4sqrt(6))/10=3/5+(2sqrt(6))/5

x_2=6/10-(4sqrt(6))/10=3/5-(2sqrt(6))/5

Explanation:

We can use the quadratic formula to solve for the roots of

5x^2-6x-3=0

Solution:
5x^2-6x-3=0

We make use of the constants a=5 and b=-6 and c=-3

Now we make use of the Quadratic formula

x=(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/(2a)

x=(-(-6)+-sqrt((-6)^2-4(5)(-3)))/(2(5))

x=(+6+-sqrt(36+60))/(10)

x=(+6+-sqrt(96))/(10)

x=(+6+-sqrt(16(6)))/(10)

x=(+6+-4sqrt(6))/(10)

x_1=6/10+(4sqrt(6))/10=3/5+(2sqrt(6))/5

x_2=6/10-(4sqrt(6))/10=3/5-(2sqrt(6))/5

God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.
