A quadratic equation has the solutions x- -5 and x=4 What are the x-intercepts of the graph of the function?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer:
(-4, 0) and (1, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:
"Solutions" in this case have the same numeric values as do "x-intercepts."
If x = -4 is a "solution" of this quadratic equation, then (-4, 0) is the corresponding x-intercept. Likewise, if x = 1 is a solution, then (1, 0) is the corresponding x-intercept.

Question 1

$3x=0.5x^{2}\\\\6x=x^{2} \\ \\ x^{2}-6x=0 \\ \\ x(x-6)=0 \\ \\ \boxed{x=0, 6}$

Question 2

$0=5x^{2}-2x+6 \\ \\ x=\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(5)(6)}}{2} \\ \\ x=\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{-116}}{10} \\ \\ x=\frac{2 \pm 2i\sqrt{29}}{10} \\ \\ \boxed{x=\frac{1 \pm i\sqrt{29}}{5}}$
