Answer:

Explanation:

6x∧2-7x-3=0

the coefficient of x² multiplied by -3 = -18

we need to look for 2 numbers that when we add it to together it will equate to -7x

+2 and -9 is the answer

6x∧2+2x-9x-3=0

2x(3x+1)-3(3x+1)=0

(2x-3)(3x+1)=0

equate each brackets to 0

2x-3=0 3x+1=0

2x=3 3x=-1

x=3/2 x=-1/3
