Verified Answer :

g(x) = 0 means 6x^2 + 23x – 4 = 0

6x^2 + 24x - x - 4 = 0
6x(x + 4) -1(x + 4) = 0
(6x -
1)(x + 4) = 0
x = 1/6 or x = -4

Answer:

\(x=1/6\) or \(x=-4\)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form \(ax^{2} +bx+c=0\) is equal to

\(x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}\)

in this problem we have

\(g(x)=6x^{2} +23x-4\)  

equate the function to zero

\(6x^{2} +23x-4=0\)  

so

\(a=6\\b=23\\c=-4\)

substitute in the formula

\(x=\frac{-23(+/-)\sqrt{23^{2}-4(6)(-4)}} {2(6)}\)

\(x=\frac{-23(+/-)\sqrt{529+96}} {12}\)

\(x=\frac{-23(+/-)25} {12}\)

\(x1=\frac{-23+25} {12}=1/6\)

\(x2=\frac{-23-25} {12}=-4\)

The solution is \(x=1/6\) or \(x=-4\)
