Dear ZaireMcfalane33, if you subtract with fraction strips the answer will be smaller, but if you add with fraction strips the answer will be bigger.
Here a = 2, b = -2, c = -1
b^2-4ac = (-2)^2 - 4(2)(-1)
= 4 +8
= 12
Because domain restrictions apply to this rational expression, x cannot be equal to {-2, 2}.
<h3>What is domain?</h3>
Domain restrictions are any points in the domain where the function will not have a value. This basically means that there is a point in the function where x will not work.
For the numerator, any value of x will suffice. We can have a value of 0 in the numerator, or a positive, negative, or decimal number.
However, the denominator cannot be equal to zero. This is due to the fact that a fraction bar represents division, and we cannot divide by zero.
Here,
x²-4=0
Add 4 to both sides:
x²-4+4 = 0+4
x² = 4
Take the square root of both sides:
√x² = √4
x = 2 or x = -2
The x cannot be equal to {-2, 2} as domain restrictions apply to this rational expression.
