Solve 3x2 + 13x = 10

1 answer:

4 0

We want to solve the quadratic equation 3x² + 13x = 10.

Write the equation as
3x² + 13x - 10 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to obtain
x = (1/6) [ -13 +/- √{13² - 4*3*(-10)} ]
= (1/6) [-13 +/- √289]
= (1/6) [-13 +/- 17]
x = -30/6 = -5
or
x = 4/6 = 2/3

The solution is x = 2/3 and -5.
