Use the zero product property to help go from the given roots to a quadratic polynomial.

or

or Multiply both sides by 2

or Subtract 1 from both sides

or Square both sides



Use i^2 = -1





FOIL







This is the final answer.

We can use the quadratic formula to confirm this

For , we have a = 2, b = -2, c = 23

We end up with the roots that were given to us. So this confirms that has the proper roots we were given. In other words, this confirms that the given roots lead to

Note: we could scale both sides of by some nonzero number k, and get the same roots (since we can undo this and divide both sides by k). To keep things fairly simple, we'll make k = 1. We can consider to be reduced as much as possible since the coefficients 2,-2,23 only have the common factor 1 between them.

 ====> 
As seen above, and based on the quadratic equation formula, 1 = - b___b = - 1
Also, as seen above, and based on the quadratic equation formula,

Finally, as seen above, and based on the quadratic equation formula, the DISCRIMINANT,

<====== General form of a quadratic equation
-------- Substituting 1 for a, - 1 for b, and for c.
----- Multiplying the above by LCD, 2
