Question

Use the quadratic formula and a calculator to find all real solutions, correct to three decimals. (If there is no real solution, enter NO REAL SOLUTION.)
x2 − 0.017x − 0.064 = 0

Answer 1

The quadratic formula is :
\[x =( -b +\sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac} )/2a\]
\[x =( -b -\sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac} )/2a\]

where a is the coefficient of x^2, b the coeffecient of x and c the constant term.
a = 1
b = 0.017
c = 0.064
Plug those values into the equations to find your answer. :)
