Answer:

x = -4/3    x =1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

6x^2 +5x - 4 = 0

6 has factors of 3 and 2   and 6 and 1

4 has factors of -4 and 1  and -2 and 2, and -1 and 4

We want +5 in the middle

3* -1 + 4*2 = 5

( 3x+4) ( 2x -1) =0

Using the zero product property

3x+4 =0   2x-1 =0

3x = -4    2x =1

x = -4/3    x =1/2

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and [tex]-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this equation using the quadratic formula, which is

[tex]\frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}}[/tex]

Assuming that with your equation, 6x² + 5x - 4 = 0, a is 6, b is 5, and c is -4.

We can substitute inside the equation.

[tex]\frac{{ - 5 \pm \sqrt {5^2 - 4 \cdot 6\cdot\-4} }}{{2 \cdot6}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{{ - 5 \pm \sqrt {25 + 96} }}{{12}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{{ - 5 \pm \sqrt {121} }}{{12}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{{ - 5 \pm 11 }}{{12}}}[/tex]

Now, we can find our two values by using subtraction/addition and division.

[tex]-5 + 11 = 6\\-5 - 11 = -16[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{12} =\frac{1}{2} \\-\frac{6}{12} =-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

I hope this helped!
