Answer:
x = -4/5 and -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
"Finding zeroes" means find the x-values that make f(x) = 0, so we have...
0 = 10x² + 9x + 2
Use quadratic equation to solve...
x = [-9 ± √(9² - 4(10)(2))]/[2(10)]
x = [-9 ± √(81 - 80)]/20
x = [-9 ± √1]/20
x = [-9 ± 1]/20
x = (-9 + 1)/20 and (-9 - 1)/20
x = -8/20 and -10/20
x = -4/5 and -1/2
I feel like the answer is B. I hope this helped!
One way is factor
exg
if you wanted to find the square root of 36 you would factor
36=2 times 2 times 3 times 3
then group repeeting numbers then write only one of them
36=(2 times 2) times (3 times 3)
squareroot36=2 times 3=6
so factor 65
65=5 times 13
that doesn't help
next step
find squares close to that numbers
1^2=1
2^2=4
3^2=9
4^2=16
5^2=25
6^2=36
7^2=49
8^2=64
9^2=81
the answer is a little more than 8
the more exact one would be from a calculator (8.0622577482985)
