Question 37789: Find the quadratic equation that has the solutions x=4 and x=-8. Write in the form ____X(squared)+____X+_____=0
Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If a quadratic equation has the solutions (roots) x = 4 and x = -8, the factors of the equation are: (x-4)=0 and (x+8)=0
To generate the equation from which these factors are derived, simply multiply the factors.
Use the FOIL method to multiply.
Simplify.
This is the equation.
