6x2 - 3 - 7x = 0

6x2 - 7x - 3 = 0

6x2 - 9x + 2x - 3 = 0

3x(2x - 3) + 1(2x - 3) = 0

(3x + 1)(2x - 3) = 0

The zeroes of the given quadratic polynomial are -1/3 and 3/2

\\\alpha =-\frac{1}{3}\\ \beta =\frac{3}{2}

Sum of roots:

\\\alpha+\beta =-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{2}=\frac{7}{6}

\\-\frac{coefficient\ of\ x}{coefficient\ of\ x^{2}}\\ =-\frac{-7}{6}\\ =\frac{7}{6}\\=\alpha +\beta

Verified

Product of roots:

\\\alpha \beta =-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{2}=-\frac{1}{2}

\\\frac{constant\ term}{coefficient\ of\ x^{2}}\\ =\frac{-3}{6}\\ =-\frac{1}{2}\\=\alpha \beta
