Answer:

[tex]x_{1}=\frac{1+\sqrt{33} }{4}\\x_{2}=\frac{1-\sqrt{33} }{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using quadratic formula

[tex]x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c} }{2*a}[/tex]

we will have two solutions.

2x^2 - x - 4 = 0

So, a=2   b=-1  c=-4, we have:

[tex]x_{1}=\frac{+1+\sqrt{-1^{2}-4*2*-4} }{2*2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+1-\sqrt{-1^{2}-4*2*-4} }{2*2}[/tex]

Finally, we have two solutions:

[tex]x_{1}=\frac{1+\sqrt{33} }{4}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{1-\sqrt{33} }{4}[/tex]
