Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to assume the question has a typo and that the question is actually [tex]3x^2 -10x-8=0[/tex].
You can simplify this to:
[tex](3x+2)(x-4)=0[/tex]
This leaves the solutions [tex]x=-\frac{2}{3}[/tex] and x=4
The only positive solution therefore is x=4
Answer:
The answer is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the improved quadratic formula (https://socratic.org/algebra/quadratic-equations-and-functions/quadratic-formula)
D=d^2=b^2-4ac=100+96=196⇒d±14
There are 2 real roots: x=-b/2a±d/2a=10/6±14/6=5/3±7/3
The positive real root is : 12/3=4
