Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
6x\(^2\) - 7x - 5 = 0
6x\(^2\) - 10x + 3x - 5 = 0
2x(3x - 5) + 1(3x - 5) = 0
(2x + 1)(3x - 5) = 0
x = \(\frac{5}{3}\) or x = \(-\frac{1}{2}\)
6x\(^2\) - 7x - 5 = 0
6x\(^2\) - 10x + 3x - 5 = 0
2x(3x - 5) + 1(3x - 5) = 0
(2x + 1)(3x - 5) = 0
x = \(\frac{5}{3}\) or x = \(-\frac{1}{2}\)
