Question

14b^2 - 2 = - 3b I need help with figuring this one out

Answer 1

`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)`
