Solve 3x^2+2x-1=0

Evaluate

3 x^{2} + 2 x - 1 = 0

Factor the expression

More Steps

(x + 1) (3 x - 1) = 0

When the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0

3 x - 1 = 0 x + 1 = 0

Solve the equation for x

More Steps

x = \frac{1}{3} x + 1 = 0

Solve the equation for x

More Steps

x = \frac{1}{3} x = - 1

Solution

x_{1} = - 1, x_{2} = \frac{1}{3}

Alternative Form

x_{1} = - 1, x_{2} = 0. \dot{3}
