Answer:
2x² +5x -12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
When p and q are roots of a quadratic, its factored form can be written as ...
(x -p)(x -q) = 0
Here, the roots are given as -4 and 3/2, so the factored form would be ...
(x -(-4))(x -(3/2) = 0
Multiplying by 2 gives us ...
(x +4)(2x -3) = 0
Expanding the product, we find the desired quadratic is ...
2x² +5x -12 = 0
