g(x)= -2x^2-8x+12 =0 or less than zero
first solve g(x)=0 using

= are the 2 solutions in the case when g(x)=0
For the case g(x)<0 we have
g(x)= [x-(-2+10^0.5)][x-(-2-10^0.5)]<0..product of 2 factors will be negative if one of the 2 is negative and the other positive
hence g(x)<0 if x lies between (-2+) and (-2-)
