Solution
- The question would like us to solve the quadratic equation:
[tex]3x^2-13x+2=-2[/tex]- The solution to this equation is given below:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x^2-13x+2=-2 \\ \text{Add 2 to both sides} \\ 3x^2-13x+4=0 \\ \\ \text{ We can rewrite the x-term as follows:} \\ -13x=-12x-x \\ \\ 3x^2-12x-x+4=0 \\ Let\text{ us factorize} \\ \\ 3x(x-4)-1(x-4)=0 \\ (x-4)\text{ is common } \\ \\ (x-4)(3x-1)=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]- Thus, the linear factors are
