<PRE><B>Question 819463</B>
f(p) = -2p^2 + 24p - 54
15 = -2p^2 + 24p - 54
-2p^2 + 24p - 69 = 0
---
the above quadratic equation is in standard form, with a=-2, b=24, and c=-69
---
to solve the quadratic equation, by using the quadratic formula, plug this:
-2 24 -69
into this: https://sooeet.com/math/quadratic-equation-solver.php
---
the two real roots (i.e. the two x-intercepts), of the quadratic are:
p = 4.77525513
p = 7.22474487
