Hello,

$u_{1} =4\\
 u_{2} =4*q\\
 u_{3} =4*q^2\\
...\\

 u_{9} =4*q^8\\\\
==\textgreater\ 4*q^8=1024\\
==\textgreater\ q^8=256\\
==\textgreater\ q=2\mbox{( and there is a problem in the question) } \ or \ q=-2\\
if\ q=2 \ then\ \sum_{i=0}^{8}\ 4*(2)^i= 4*\dfrac{1-2^9}{1-2} =2044\\

if \ q=-2 \ then\ \sum_{i=0}^{8}\ 4*(-2)^i= 4*\dfrac{1-(-2)^9}{1+2} =684\\

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = x2 + 5x + 5 written in simplest radical form?

Pavel [41]

$\boxed{x_{1}=\frac{-5 + \sqrt{5}}{2}} \\ \\ \\ \boxed{x_{2}=\frac{-5 - \sqrt{5}}{2}}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using the quadratic formula:

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ \\ \\ Here: \\ \\ f(x) = x^2 + 5x + 5 \\ \\ \\ So: \\ \\ a=1 \\ \\ b=5 \\ \\ c=5 \\ \\ \\ x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5^2-4(1)(5)}}{2(1)} \\ \\ x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{25-20}}{2} \\ \\ x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5}}{2} \\ \\ \\ Two \ solutions: \\ \\ \boxed{x_{1}=\frac{-5 + \sqrt{5}}{2}} \\ \\ \\ \boxed{x_{2}=\frac{-5 - \sqrt{5}}{2}}$
