Answer:

Step 1: To use the quadratic formula, the equation must be equal to zero, so move the –4x back to the left hand side. Step 2: Identify a, b, and c and plug them into the quadratic formula. In this case a = 3, b = 4, and c = 8. Step 3: Use the order of operations to simplify the quadratic formula.
