Solve the factored quadratic equation (13x + 3) (9x - 14) = 0.

The solution set is x = {-13/3,9/14}.
The solution set is x = {-3,14}.
The solution set is x = {-3/13, 9/14}.
The solution set is x = {-3/13,1 5/9}.

To solve the factored quadratic equation \((13x + 3)(9x - 14) = 0\), we can set each factor to zero and solve for \(x\):

  1. First factor:
    \(13x + 3 = 0\)
    Subtract 3 from both sides:
    \(13x = -3\)
    Now, divide by 13:
    \(x = -\frac{3}{13}\)

  2. Second factor:
    \(9x - 14 = 0\)
    Add 14 to both sides:
    \(9x = 14\)
    Now, divide by 9:
    \(x = \frac{14}{9}\)

Now, we can compile the solutions together: The solution set is \(x = \left{-\frac{3}{13}, \frac{14}{9}\right}\).

Thus, the correct solution from the options provided is: The solution set is \(x = \left{-\frac{3}{13}, \frac{14}{9}\right}\).
