Given:
The function, f(x) = -2x^2 + x + 5
Quadratic equation: 0 = -2x^2 + x +5
where a = -2
b = 1
c = 5
The discriminate b^2 - 4ac = 41
To solve for the zeros of the quadratic function, use this formula:
x = ( -b +-√ (b^2 - 4ac) ) / 2a
x = ( 1 + √41 ) / 4 or 1.85
x = ( 1 - √41 ) / 4 or -1.35
Therefore, the zeros of the quadratic equation are 1.85 and -1.35.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Odd degree and negative leading coefient
means it goes from the top left to bottom right
goes infinitely down
as x aproaches infinity, y approaches neagtive infinity
