Solve for x :![]()
Given equation: 2x2 + √3 x – 3 = 0
Comparing above equation with ax2 + bx + c = 0,
⇒ a = 2; b = √3; c = -3
Now, b2 – 4ac = (√3)2 – 4(2)(-3)
= 3 – (-24)
⇒ b2 – 4ac = 27 ≥ 0
We know that, if b2 – 4ac ≥ 0 then the roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 is given by [–b
(√b2– 4ac)] / 2a which is known as the quadratic formula.
⇒ x = [-√3
√27]/ 2(2)
⇒ x = [-√3
3√3] / 4
⇒ x = [-√3 + 3√3] / 4 (or) x = [-√3 - 3√3] / 4
⇒ x = (2√3)/4 (or) x = (-4√3)/4
⇒ x = √3/2 (or) x = -√3
Ans. The solutions of x are √3/2 (or) x = -√3.
