So, the final answer is 3.0,0.2.

Steps

Step 1 :Rearrange the equation to the form of ax2+bx+c=0, which gives us 5x214x3=0.

Step 2 :Identify the coefficients as a=5, b=14, and c=3.

Step 3 :Calculate the discriminant D using the formula D=b24ac, which gives us D=256.

Step 4 :Use the quadratic formula x=b±D2a to solve for x.

Step 5 :The solutions to the equation are x=3.0 and x=0.2.

Step 6 :So, the final answer is 3.0,0.2.
