x = -6 is the equation for this question.
F(-3) = -2(-3)^2 - 5(-3) + 4 = -2(9) + 15 + 4 = -18 + 19 = 1
Most real number arithmetic is pretty vacuous

That's about as good a way as possible to write this particular real number. But it's far from the only way.

so

Sometimes you can factor something out and you have a common radical:

But most of them are vacuous,

Your answer will be letter b
