What are the roots of 3x^2 + 13x + 4 ?

The roots of the quadratic equation 3x^2 + 13x + 4 can be found by factoring the equation or by using the quadratic formula. By factoring, we observe that:

3x^2 + 13x + 4 = (3x + 1)(x + 4)

Setting each factor to zero, we find that:

3x + 1 = 0       or       x + 4 = 0

Solving these equations, we get:

3x = -1          or       x = -4

x = -1/3         or       x = -4

Therefore, the roots of 3x^2 + 13x + 4 are x = -1/3 and x = -4.
