Since this polynomial has 4 terms, factoring by grouping should be the first thing we try here.
So, we have:

So, we can use ZPP to find out roots:

So our three roots are:

Answer:
x = (28 +- root -64) / (8)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x^2 -28x= -53 = 0
x = [-(-28)+- root (-28)^2 - 4 * 4 * 53] / 2 *4
x = (28 +- root 784 - 848) / (8)
x = (28 +- root -64) / (8)
Triangularizing matrix gives the matrix that has only zeroes above or below the main diagonal. To find which option is correct we need to calculate all of them.
In all these options we calculate result and write it into row that is first mentioned:
A)R1-R3
