We have the quadratic equation: 2x^2 - 7x + 6 =
0
We can solve using the quadratic formula or by
factoring.
1. using the quadratic
formula:
x = [ -b +- sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/
2a
==> x1= [ 7 + sqrt(49-4*2*6 ] /
4
= [ 7+ sqrt1 ) / 4 = 8/4 =
2
==> x2= ( 7-1)/4 = 6/4 =
3/2
2. Solve using
factoring.
==> 2x^2 - 7x + 6 = (
2x-3)(x-2)
==> x1=
3/2
==> x2=
2
Then the solution is x = { 2,
3/2}
