Given Equation is 9x^2 - 15x + 6 = 0.
(i)
Divide throughout by 9.
⇒ x^2 - (15/9) x + (6/9) = 0
⇒ x^2 - (5/3) x + (2/3) = 0
(ii)
Rewrite the equation with the constant term on the right side.
⇒ x^2 - (5/3) x = -2/3
(iii)
Complete the square by adding the square of one-half of coefficient.
⇒ x^2 - (5/3)x + (5/6)^2 = -2/3 + (5/6)^2
⇒ x^2 - (5/3) x + (5/6)^2 = 1/36
(iv)
Write the left side as square.
⇒ (x - 5/6)^2 = 1/36
⇒ x - 5/6 = √1/36
⇒ x - 5/6 = 1/6
(v)
Equate and solve.
(a)
⇒ x - 5/6 = 1/6
⇒ x = 1/6 + 5/6
⇒ x = 1.
(b)
⇒ x - 5/6 = -1/6
⇒ x = -1/6 + 5/6
⇒ x = 2/3.
Therefore, roots are 1 and 2/3.
Hope it helps!
