Question

Use complete sentences to explain how you would use graphing technology to find the solutions of 0 = 2x2 − 3x + 0.5. What do the solutions of 0 = 2x2 − 3x + 0.5 represent on the graph of the equation?

Answer 1

graph the curve y = 2x^2 -3x + 0.5

then look at where the curve cuts the x - axis... this will be the solutions to the equation

0= 2x^2 - 3x + 0.5

because what you are doing is finding the intersections of the lines y = 0 and

y = 2x^2 -3x + 0.5
