-19x^3-12x^2+16x=0 find the real solutions of the equation by graphing
like doing the graph of the function by derivating and finding critical points?
how do you figure out or find the solution such as -1.29 -1.29,0.65 0,1.29,-0.65 0,-1.29,0.65
-19x^3-12x^2+16x=0 -19x^2-12x+16=0 use quadratic formula or factor out to find roots
a=-19 b=-12 c=16 \[x = \frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b ^{2}-4ac} }{2a }\]
x=-12+-(-12)^2-4(-19)(16)/2(-19)
actually, it will begin by x=12+-, because -b= -(-12)=12
and theres a square root
12+-144-76(64)/-38
\[x=\frac{ 12\pm \sqrt{144+4\times16\times19} }{ -2\times19}\]
x=-1.29, x=0 and x=0.65
dont forget the x=0, because at the beginning, you factored by x and then assumed either x = 0 or the other multiple is 0
but how did you get -1.29 and 0.65
i just calculated the number under the square root. then, it says +-, so one time you solve the equation with a +, and then another time with a -. gives 2 answers, plus the x=0
okay thats what i didnt do thanks so much for the help
