Answer:

The roots are -1 and 0.60

Explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
ax^(2) +bx+c=0 is equal to


x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^(2)-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have


2x-3=-5x^(2)

so


5x^(2)+2x-3=0


a=5\\b=2\\c=-3

substitute in the formula


x=\frac{-2(+/-)\sqrt{2^(2)-4(5)(-3)}} {2(5)}


x=\frac{-2(+/-)√(64)} {10}


x=\frac{-2(+/-)8} {10}


x=\frac{-2(+)8} {10}=0.60


x=\frac{-2(-)8} {10}=-1

therefore

The roots are -1 and 0.60
