Answer:

Factoring.

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Factoring
  • Finding roots of quadratics

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

y = 2x² - 6x - 8

0 = 2x² - 6x - 8

<u>Step 2: Find roots</u>

  1. Factor 2:                    0 = 2(x² - 3x - 4)
  2. Factor:                        0 = 2(x - 4)(x + 1)
  3. Find roots:                 x = -1, 4

And we have our final answer!

Answer:

first take 2 out of the equation

y=2(x^2-3x-4)

then factor

y=2(x-4)(x+1)

then solve

(x-4)=0 .  (x+1)=0

x=4 .          x=-1

15 points and Will give branliest !!
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Midpoint of a line segment with the endpoints A(a1, a2), B(b1, b2) is M(1/2*(a1 + b1), 1/2*(a2 + b2))

So,

(1/2*(-4 + 7), 1/2*(-3 + (-5))) = (1/2*3, 1/2*(-8)) = (1.5, -4)

Answer D is correct.
