Let's solve your equation step-by-step.<span><span><span>6x</span>−<span>2<span>x4</span></span></span>=<span>12x</span></span><span><span><span>−<span>2<span>x4</span></span></span>+<span>6x</span></span>=<span>12x</span></span>
Step 1: Subtract 12x from both sides.<span><span><span><span>−<span>2<span>x4</span></span></span>+<span>6x</span></span>−<span>12x</span></span>=<span><span>12x</span>−<span>12x</span></span></span><span><span><span>−<span>2<span>x4</span></span></span>−<span>6x</span></span>=0</span>
Step 2: Factor left side of equation.<span><span><span>2x</span><span>(<span><span>−<span>x3</span></span>−3</span>)</span></span>=0</span>
Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.<span><span><span>2x</span>=<span><span><span>0<span> or </span></span>−<span>x3</span></span>−3</span></span>=0</span><span><span>x=<span><span>0<span> or </span></span>x</span></span>=<span>−1.44225</span></span>
Answer:<span><span>x=<span><span>0<span> or </span></span>x</span></span>=<span>−1.44225 This is the answer if its exponent. The other might be:</span></span>
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span>6x</span>−<span>2<span>(<span>4x</span>)</span></span></span>=<span>12x</span></span><span>
Simplify: (Show steps)</span><span><span>−<span>2x</span></span>=<span>12x</span></span>

Find the solutions of the quadratic equation 14x^2+9x+10=014x
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Option B. x=-\frac{9}{28}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{479}}{28}i

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

14x^{2}+9x+10=0

so

a=14\\b=9\\c=10

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{9^{2}-4(14)(10)}} {2(14)}

x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{-479}} {28}

Remember that

i=\sqrt{-1}

substitute

x=\frac{-9(+/-)\sqrt{479}i} {28}  

x=-\frac{9}{28}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{479}}{28}i
