What is the answer to -6n^2 - 5n - 7 = -8

n = , n =

Step-by-step explanation:

6n² - 5n - 7 = - 8 ( add 8 to both sides )

6n² - 5n + 1 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the product of the factors of the coefficient of the n² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term

product = 6 × 1 = 6 and sum = - 5

The factors are - 3 and - 2

Use these factors to split the n- term

6n² - 3n - 2n + 1 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3n(2n - 1) - 1(2n - 1) = 0 ← factor out (2n - 1) from each term

(2n - 1)(3n - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for n

3n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 3n = 1 ⇒ n =

2n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2n = 1 ⇒ n =
