Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function:


3x^(2)=-4+8x

First, rearrange the equation:


3x^2-8x+4=0

Next, factor the expression:


\begin{gathered} 3x^2-6x-2x+4=0 \\ 3x(x-2)-2(x-2)=0 \\ (x-2)(3x-2)=0 \end{gathered}

Thus, this gives:


\begin{gathered} x-2=0\text{ or }3x-2=0 \\ x=2\text{ or }3x=2 \\ x=2\text{ or }x=(2)/(3) \end{gathered}

The correct choice is 2/3.
