You need to use the quadratic formula or graph it and find the zeros. that does factor cleanly
Hello!
Here we can use the quad formula to solve for the x values or roots.

= -2 and 3/2
The negative root for this equation is x=-2
We find the roots of an equation by solving for x by different ways, most common ones being the quadratic formula of x= [-b +/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)]/2a or factoring and setting equal to zero and solving for x value(s) that way. Also the roots are where the graph of the equation crosses the x-axis.
Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask. Thank you kindly
At x = 8, y = 4
At x = 14, y = 7
At y = 3, x = 6
Solution:
Given rule:

At x = 8,

Hence at x = 8, y = 4.
At x = 14.

Hence at x = 14, y = 7.
At y = 3

Multiply by 2 on both sides.


Hence at y = 3, x = 6.
