Answer:

Given equation have two solutions.

x = $-\frac{5}{2} and -\frac{8}{3}$

Right option is (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

$6x^{2} +40=-31x$

we can rewrite this equation in the form given as:

6x² + 40 + 31x = 0

or 6x² + 31x + 40 = 0

On solving this quadratic equation, we get :

x = $-\frac{5}{2} and -\frac{8}{3}$

That means, given equation have two solutions.

Right option is (D)
