These answers are clearly wrong; just plug them back into the equation and you'll see that you do not get an answer of 0, which would occur with the actual solutions. Secondly, this function cannot be factored as you tried to do, that is why you must use the quadratic formula. Quadratic functions are in the form ax^2 + bx + c. |dw:1318641513519:dw|
