Answer: B

Begin by simplifying the given equation, so it's rearranged into standard form. Move all the terms onto one side, so they equal 0. This would result with
4x^(2)-3x-9=0. Quadratic formula is (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a). Standard form follow this variable format:
ax^(2)+bx+c. Use the numbers that correspond with each variable to substitute them into the quadratic formula. This would be

(-(-3)±√(-3²-4(4)(-9)/2(4).
