Hi there!
We can see this by writing the factors as multipliers. We get the following:
Now we can see that the terms that are in common are 3 and a, and therefore we can bring those outside the parenthesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x² + x + 3/4
in general, such a quadratic function is defined as
f(x) = a×x² + b×x + c
the solution for finding the values of x where a quadratic function value is 0 (there are as many solutions as the highest exponent of x, so 2 here in our case)
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
a = 1
b = 1
c = 3/4
x = (-1 ± sqrt(1² - 4×1×3/4))/(2×1) =
= (-1 ± sqrt(1 - 3))/2 = (-1 ± sqrt(-2))/2 =
= (-1 ± sqrt(2)i)/2
x1 = (-1 + sqrt(2)i) / 2
x2 = (-1 - sqrt(2)i) / 2
remember, i = sqrt(-1)
f(x) has no 0 results for x = real numbers.
for the solution we need to use imaginary numbers.

This looks right
