Answer:

-1/2  ,  3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the roots of the function 2x² - 5x - 3  

We have to solve the quadratic equation :

2x² - 5x - 3 = 0

Calculating the discriminant Δ :

Δ = b² - 4ac

  = (-5)² - 4(2)(-3)

  = 25 + 24

  = 49

Then

√Δ = √49 = 7

Determining the Zeros :

[tex]x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} = \frac{5+7} {2 \times (2)} =\frac{12}{4} =3[/tex]

or

[tex]x=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} = \frac{5-7} {2 \times (2)} =\frac{-2}{4} =\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]
