Solve the quadratic equation 3x squared + x - 5=0 give your answer to 2 dp

Solve the equation for x by finding a, b, and c of the quadratic then applying the quadratic formula.

x=-1±√61/6

x≈1.13504161,-1.46837494

Step-by-step explanation:

3x2+x-5=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=3, b=1, c=-5.

x=-b±√b2-4ac/2a

x = - (1) ±√ (1) 2-4 (3) (-5) / 2 (3)

x=-1±√61/6

x=-1/6+1/6√61 or x=-1/6+-1/6√61
