Answer:


b=-(1)/(2), (2)/(7)

Explanation:

Starting from this equation
14b^2-2= -3b

We can rewrite it to a quadratic equation:


14b^2+3b-2= 0

Factoring this equation gives us:


(7b-2)(2b+1)=0

Now because its a quadratic formula, we have to answers:


(7b-2) = 0\\7b=2\\b=(2)/(7)

or


(2b+1)=0\\2b=-1\\b=-(1)/(2)
