Nonlinear Equations in One Variable and Systems of Equations

SAT Math· difficulty 3/5

Solve 6x25x6=06x^2 - 5x - 6 = 0.

  • A

    x=3/2,2/3x = -3/2, 2/3

  • B

    x=2/3,3/2x = -2/3, -3/2

  • C

    x=3/2,2/3x = 3/2, -2/3

    check_circle
  • D

    x=2/3,3/2x = 2/3, 3/2

Explanation

(2x3)(3x+2)=0(2x-3)(3x+2) = 0, so x=3/2x = 3/2 or x=2/3x = -2/3.
