Answer:
[tex] x = - 4, \: \: x = 1 \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2 {x}^{2} + 5x - 12 = 0 \\ \\ 2 {x}^{2} + 8x - 3x - 12 = 0 \\ \\ 2x(x + 4) - 3(x + 4) = 0 \\ \\ (x + 4)(2x - 3) = 0 \\ \\ x + 4 = 0, \: \: 2x - 3 = 0 \\ \\ x = - 4, \: \: x = \frac{3}{2} \\ \\ x = - 4, \: \: x = 1 \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
