What are the x-intercepts of 4x^ + 8x - 5

mojhsa [17]3 years ago

Assuming the exponent is supposed to be "^2" your equation will read:

4x² + 8x - 5

It must set equal to y to be a valid function and the y must be set equal to zero to find x-intercepts.

4x² + 8x - 5 = 0
4x² - 2x + 10x - 5 = 0
2x(2x - 1) + 5(2x - 1) = 0

(2x + 5)(2x - 1) = 0

Set each binomial equal to zero.

2x + 5 = 0
2x = 0 - 5
2x = - 5
Divide both sides by 2
x = - 5/2

2x - 1 = 0
2x = 0 + 1
2x = 1
x = 1/2

Your x-intercepts are x = - 5/2, 1/2 or (- 5/2, 0) and (1/2, 0)

Khan academy how to solve equations with fractions and mixed numbers
Rufina [12.5K]
Generally, you are told to approach these by "clearing fractions". That is, you generally multiply the equations by the least common denominator so all fractions and mixed numbers become integers.

Alternatively, you can simply do the arithmetic using the numbers given. You learned a long time ago how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide mixed numbers and fractions. Do these operations as necessary to solve the equations.
