Answer to Problem 12OE

Quadratic Formula

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The equation is :

  4x2−2x−3=0

Calculation:

The given equation 4x2−2x−3=0 is of the type ax2+bx+c=0 , where a = 4 and b = -2, c = -3 .

  b2−4ac=(−2)2−4(4)(−3)=4+48=52 , which is not perfect square .

So, it can be solved by using the Quadratic Formula : x=−b±b2−4ac2a
