Answer:

C. -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by finding the roots of the equation by factorising.

3x³+4x²-4x=0

x(3x²+4x-4)=0

x(3x-2)(x+2)=0    [because (ax+b)(cx+d)=(ac)x²+(ad+bc)x+(bd)]

If multiplying these three terms works out to be zero, we know that one of the terms must be zero, as anything multiplied by zero is zero.

So

x=0, or 3x-2=0, or x+2=0

Which means our roots are

x=0, x=2/3, x=-2

Now find the sum of these roots: 0+(2/3)-2=(2/3)-(6/3)=-4/3
