Algebra.Com's Answer #505716 by josh_jordan(263)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The first thing we need to do is find the roots of \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You will notice that this polynomial will not factor evenly, so we will have to find the roots by using the quadratic formula: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Doing this will give us our two roots: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find a new quadratic equation with roots that are one more than each of the roots of our original equation, we need to add 1 to each of the original roots:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next, we will put these roots into factored form:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Finally, we need to expand our factors by multiplying via the FOIL method, which will give us our final answer:\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " |
