Find the roots of each of the following equations, if they exist, by applying the quadratic formula:
√3x2 + 10x – 8√3 = 0
Given: 
Comparing with standard quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0
Discriminant D = b2 – 4ac
= 100 + 96 = 196 > 0
Hence the roots of equation are real.
Roots 
are given by
Hence the roots of equation are 
10
