I'm sure there's an easier way of solving it than the way I did, but I'm not sure what it could be. Never dealt with a problem like this before.
Anyway, I just plugged in and tested. Chose random values for a, b, c, and d, which follow the rule 0 < a < b < c < d:
a = 1
b = 2
c = 3
d = 4
Simplify into standard form:
Use the quadratic formula to solve:
For functions in the form of
. So in this case:
a = 1
b = -4
c = 2
Plug them in:
Solve for 'x':
So the answer would be A.
