Answer:
How do you solve the following quadratic equation: 6x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0?
Solution: 6x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0
Here is the method to go about solving similar quadratic equations.
The product of 6 and 4 = 24.
Find factors of 24, such that their difference (D) is 5:
1, 24. D = 23. Fail
2, 12. D = 10. Fail.
3, 8. D = 5. Right.
4, 6. D = 2. Fail.
So write 6x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0 as
6x^2+8x-3x-4 = 0
(6x^2+8x)-(3x+4) = 0
2x(3x+4) - (3x+4) = 0
(2x-1)(3x+4) = 0.
Either (2x-1) = 0, or (3x+4) = 0, hence
x = 1/2 or -4/3. Answer.
Check: 6x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0
f(1/2): LHS = 6/4 +5/2 - 4
= 3/2+5/2 -8/2
= 0 = RHS. Correct
6x^2 + 5x - 4 = 0
f(-4/3): LHS = 96/9 -20/3 - 4
= 96/9-60/9 -36/9
= 0 = RHS. Correct.
