Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the eq. of parabola be

y=ax²+bx+c

points (-1,0),(2,0),(3,4) and (0,-2) lie on it.

0=a-b+c

0=4a+2b+c

subtract

3a+3b=0

a=-b

4=9a+3b+c

-2=0+0+c

c=-2

a-b-2=0

-b-b-2=0

-2b-2=0

b+1=0

b=-1

a=-b=-(-1)=1

eq. of parabola is

y=x²-x-2

Given the equation:

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

x = 1 and x = $\frac{-4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, a=5, b=-1, c=-4.

Plug these into the quadratic formula:

x = $\frac{1+\sqrt{-1^{2}-(-4)(5)(-4) } }{2(5)}$ and x = $\frac{1-\sqrt{-1^{2}-(-4)(5)(-4) } }{2(5)}$

Now, simplify the equations:

x = $\frac{1+\sqrt{81} }{10}$ = $\frac{1+9}{10}$ = $\frac{10}{10}$ = 1

and

x = $\frac{1-\sqrt{81} }{10}$ = $\frac{1-9}{10}$ = $\frac{-8}{10}$ = $\frac{-4}{5}$
