The equation of the quadratic function is f(x) = x²+ 2/3x - 1/9
<h3>How to determine the quadratic equation?</h3>
From the question, the given parameters are:
Roots = (-1 - √2)/3 and (-1 + √2)/3
The quadratic equation is then calculated as
f(x) = The products of (x - roots)
Substitute the known values in the above equation
So, we have the following equation

This gives

Evaluate the products

Evaluate the like terms

So, we have
f(x) = x²+ 2/3x - 1/9
