a = 4, b = -21, c = -18
to keep from getting "mixed up", evaluate the discriminant first ...
b<sup>2</sup> - 4ac = (-21)<sup>2</sup> - 4(4)(-18) = 729
sqrt(729) = 27
x = (21 +/- 27)/8
x = -3/4, x = 6
since the discriminant is a perfect square, the original quadratic will factor ...
4x<sup>2</sup> - 21x - 18 = 0
(4x + 3)(x - 6) = 0
x = -3/4, x = 6
Steps?
A graph shows zeros to be ±3. Factoring those out leaves the quadratic
(x-2)² +1
which has complex roots 2±i.
The function has roots -3, 3, 2-i, 2+i.
