Answer:
x = 2.36603 or 0.633975
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we want to solve the quadratic equation using the completing the square method.
2x^2-6x + 3 = 0
divide through by 2 first;
x^2 -3x + 3/2 = 0
x*2 -3x = -3/2
Half the x term will be -3/2 and squaring it is 9/4
we add this to both sides
x^2-3x/2 + 9/4 = -3/2 + 9/4
(x-3/2)^2 = 3/4
Finding square root of both sides
x-3/2 = √(3/4)
x = 3/2 ± √(3/4)
x = 3/2 + √(3/4) or x = 3/2-√(3/4)
which becomes
x = 2.36603 or 0.633975
