Answer:
x = {-0.6, 1.8}
Explanation:
Adding 33 we have ...
4x^2 -5x = 4
Dividing by 4, we get ...
x^2 -5/4x = 1
We can complete the square by adding the square of half the x-coefficient:
x^2 -5/4x +25/64 = 89/64
(x -5/8)^2 = 89/64
x = (5 ±√89)/8 = {-0.5542, 1.8042}
The solution rounded to the nearest tenth is ...
x = {-0.6, 1.8}
