Question

For what values of x will the function f(x) = 7x ^ 2 + 27x - 4 equal zero?

Answer 1

Answer:

The function f(x) will equal zero when x = 2/17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms and set the resulting expression equal to zero.  We get:

f(x) = 34x - 2 = 0

Adding 2 to each 34x - 2 and 0, we get 34x = 2.  Solving this for x yields

x = 2/17

The function f(x) will equal zero when x = 2/17.
