Answer:


S=\left \{x \in\mathbb{R}| x= \pm (2)/(3) \right \}

Or

x = StartFraction negative 2 Over 3 EndFraction.

Explanation:

As in this quadratic equation, b and c parameters are equal to zero. We can simply divide everything by 9 and then take the square root of all members of this equation. This equation has two solutions since Δ > 0, so we can write the solution formally as
S=\left \{x \in\mathbb{R}| x= \pm (2)/(3) \right \}


9x^(2)=4\\(9x^(2))/(9)=(4)/(9)\Rightarrow x^(2)=(4)/(9)\Rightarrow \sqrt{x^(2)}=\sqrt{(4)/(9)}\\x=\pm (2)/(3)\Rightarrow S=\left \{x \in\mathbb{R}| x= \pm (2)/(3) \right \}

Answer:

x = StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction and x = StartFraction negative 2 Over 3 EndFraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a quadratic equation of single variable x as
9x^(2) =4.

There is no doubt that as the equation is of two degrees so, it will have two solutions.

Now,
9x^(2) =4


x^(2) =(4)/(9)


x=(2)/(3) and
x = -(2)/(3)

Therefore, the solution will be x = StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction and x = StartFraction negative 2 Over 3 EndFraction. (Answer)
