Answer:

x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{(3)^2-4(5)(-4)}}{2(5)}

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the quadratic equation:

5x^2+3x-4=0

If we compare it will general quadratic equation which is: ax^2+bx+c=0

Here, a=5,b=3 and c= -4.

Now, we will use the formula:

And then x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{D}}{2a}

Where,D=b^2-4ac

x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{(3)^2-4(5)(-4)}}{2(5)}

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.
