[tex]4x^2-9x = 2x^2 -2x -4\\\\\implies 4x^2 -9x -2x ^2 +2x +4 =0\\\\\implies 2x^2 -7x +4=0\\\\\text{Apply quadratic formula,}~ x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}.\\\\\text{In this case,} ~a =2, b = -7 ~ \text{and}~ c =4\\\\\\x =\dfrac{-(-7) \pm \sqrt{(-7)^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot 4}}{2(2)}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{7 \pm \sqrt{17}}4\\\\\\\text{Hence,}~ x = \dfrac{7 +\sqrt{17}}4~ \text{and}~x = \dfrac{7 -\sqrt{17}}4[/tex]
