Solve the following by completing the square.

 

1.  x2 – 6x – 4 = 0                                                

answer: x = sqrt13 + 3, x = -sqrt13 + 3                        

 

 2.  x2 + 7x + 4 = 0

answer: x =  (sqrt33  - 7)/2, x = (-sqrt33 -7)/2

 

 

Solving the following using the Quadratic Formula.

 

3.   3x2 + 5x – 12 = 0                                             

Answer: x = 4/3, -3
