Hi

Using the Quadratic Formula to solve:

Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation with variable
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=1849 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 2.5, -0.571428571428571. Here's your graph:
