Final answer:
The given question appears to involve a quadratic equation, but it contains a typo and no clear equation is presented. The general solution for a quadratic equation uses the quadratic formula, however, the solutions derived from the example provided do not match the provided choices, suggesting a potential error in the question itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question seems to contain a typo and does not present a clear mathematical equation. However, it appears to involve solving a quadratic equation, which in general has the form ax² + bx + c = 0. When the coefficients a, b, and c are known, the solution to the equation can be found using the quadratic formula:
x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)
For example, if we use the values a = 3, b = 13, c = -10, the quadratic formula gives us two potential solutions:
x = (-13 ± √(13)² - 4 × 3 × (-10)) / (2 × 3)
This simplifies to:
x = (-13 ± √(169 + 120)) / 6
x = (-13 ± √(289)) / 6
x = (-13 ± 17) / 6
Therefore, the two solutions are x = (17 - 13) / 6 which is x = 4 / 6 or x = 2 / 3, and x = (-13 - 17) / 6 which is x = -30 / 6 or x = -5. The options provided in the question do not align with these solutions, so either the question contains a mistake or more context is needed to provide the correct answer.
