Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons:



For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

Discriminant d=529 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 2.5, -1.33333333333333. Here's your graph:

Hello,
First subtract 20 from both sides to get:
6x^2-7x-20=0
Factor:
(3x+4)(2x-5)
Now we can solve for x:
x=-4/3
x=5/2
There we go.
Make sense?
