Yes.
3X - 2 = -3X^2
add 3X^2 to each side to get in standard form
3X^2 + 3X -2 = 0
Use quadratic equation to solve for X
X = -b +/- sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a
a = 3
b = 3
c = -2
X = -3 +/- sqrt[( 3^2 - 4(3)(-2)]/2(3)
X = [-3 +/- sqrt(33)]/6

3x2 + 2x - 8 = 0 is a quadratic equation.
an equation has an equals sign.
A quadratic equation is an equation where the highest exponent on the variable is 2. For example, the equation, y=2x2+3x-2 is a quadratic equation. The equation y=2x is not quadratic because the highest exponent on x is 1. (If there is no exponent on an x, then the exponent is 1.) The equation, y=x3+3x2-2 is not quadratic because the highest exponent is three. On a graph, a quadratic equation looks like a U or and upside down U. Here are some more example of quadratic equations: y=x2 y=3x2+2x-3 y=x2+5
Because when your solving a quadratic equation your looking for x-intercepts which is where why equals 0 and x equals what ever the answer is.
This is a quadratic equation requiring the values of x to be found. Rearrange the equation in the form of: -3x2-4x+6 = 0 Use the quadratic equation formula to factorise the equation: (-3x+2.69041576)(x+2.23013857) Therefore the values of x are 0.8968052533 or - 2.230138587 An even more accurate answer can be found by using surds instead of decimals.
