The answer would be if you were solving for y. Y= 1/2x+3/8
the solutions to a general quadratic equation is
X=-b±√b²-4ac/2a ,, When ax²+bx+c=0
the discriminant is the expression under the radical b²−4ac
Part A:
discriminant is (-16)² - 4(9)(60) = -1904
there are two complex solutions
Part B:
4x² + 8x − 5 = 0
4x² + 10x -2x - 5=0
2x ( 2x + 5) - 1(2 x + 5) =0
(2x + 5)(2x-1) = 0
/ \
/ \
2x+5 = 0 2x-1 =0
x = -5/2 x = 1/2
X=0
-3(0+2)2+4 distribute -3 to the parentheses-PEMDAS
(0-6)2+4 multiply 2 by the parentheses
(0-12)+4 solve the equation
= -8
