I can only get this far then i forget what i am supposed to do.


Now what am i supposed to do?

Answer by edjones(8007)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

you now need the quadratic formula
Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation (work shown, graph etc)
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=28 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 0.645751311064591, -4.64575131106459. Here's your graph:
