Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
0.75 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '0.75'.
24000 + -340x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-24000' to each side of the equation.
24000 + -340x + -24000 + x2 = 0 + -24000

Reorder the terms:
24000 + -24000 + -340x + x2 = 0 + -24000

Combine like terms: 24000 + -24000 = 0
0 + -340x + x2 = 0 + -24000
-340x + x2 = 0 + -24000

Combine like terms: 0 + -24000 = -24000
-340x + x2 = -24000

The x term is -340x.  Take half its coefficient (-170).
Square it (28900) and add it to both sides.

Add '28900' to each side of the equation.
-340x + 28900 + x2 = -24000 + 28900

Reorder the terms:
28900 + -340x + x2 = -24000 + 28900

Combine like terms: -24000 + 28900 = 4900
28900 + -340x + x2 = 4900

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -170)(x + -170) = 4900

Calculate the square root of the right side: 70

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -170) equal to 70 and -70.

Subproblem 1

x + -170 = 70 Simplifying x + -170 = 70 Reorder the terms: -170 + x = 70 Solving -170 + x = 70 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '170' to each side of the equation. -170 + 170 + x = 70 + 170 Combine like terms: -170 + 170 = 0 0 + x = 70 + 170 x = 70 + 170 Combine like terms: 70 + 170 = 240 x = 240 Simplifying x = 240

Subproblem 2

x + -170 = -70 Simplifying x + -170 = -70 Reorder the terms: -170 + x = -70 Solving -170 + x = -70 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '170' to each side of the equation. -170 + 170 + x = -70 + 170 Combine like terms: -170 + 170 = 0 0 + x = -70 + 170 x = -70 + 170 Combine like terms: -70 + 170 = 100 x = 100 Simplifying x = 100

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {240, 100}
