Find the zeros of g(x) = -x^2 + 6x - 8

Mathematics

lbvjy [14]3 years ago

(Remember to set g(x) to zero).

For this, I will be completing the square. Firstly, what two terms have a product of 8x^2 and a sum of 6x? That would be 4x and 2x. Replace 6x with 2x + 4x: 0=-x^2+2x+4x-8

Next, factor -x^2 + 2x and 4x - 8 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses: 0=-x(x-2)+4(x-2)

Next, you can rewrite the equation as 0=(-x+4)(x-2)

Now apply the Zero Product Property:

-x+4=0\\-x=-4\\x=4\\\\x-2=0\\x=2

<u>The zeros of this equation are 4 and 2.</u>

In this case, you aren't going to get an integer for the value of a, but you can rearrange the equation to equal a.

4a-3=D       add 3 to both sides
4a=D+3      divide both sides by 4
a=(D+3)/4   here's your answer
