Answer:
x = -1
x = 4/3
Explanation:
Hello!
First, let's convert the equation into Standard Form:
We can solve this by factoring the quadratic. We have to find two numbers that multiply to
but add up to
.
The two numbers would be -4 and 3. We can expand -x to -4x + 3x, and then factor by grouping.
Factor
Use the Zero Product Property. Set each factor to zero and solve for x.
3x - 4 = 0
x + 1 = 0
The solutions to the quadratic are -1 and 4/3.
