Answer:

Hello :

y = 2x² - x -6

y = 2 ( x² - 1/2 x - 3)

y = 2 (x² -1/2 x + 1/16 -1/16 -3)

y = 2 (( x - 1/4 )² - 49/16).....  the quadratic formula

y = 0 :  ( x - 1/4 )² - 49/16 = 0

( x - 1/4 )² - (7/4)² = 0

( x -1/4-7/4)( x -1/4+7/4)=0

(x -2)(x + 3/2) = 0

x - 2 = 0 or x + 3/2 =0

x = 2 or x = - 3/2
