Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The crossings of the x-axis, , and
are the solutions, because those values both make
true
Rewriting, and give me
the factors of the equation, since
---------------
The function has a minimum which is exactly midway between
the roots. To find the x-coordinate of the midpoint,
Another way to find the x-coordinate of the vertex is
to use the formula , where
is the general formula
In this case, ,
