Question

f(x)=(x+6)^2+2 finding the roots????

Answer 1

expand. set the function equal to zero and quadraticize the function.

Answer 2

How do you do that exactly? What does expand it mean? and to quadraticize?

Answer 3

f(x) = (x+6)^2+2
f(x) = x^2+12x+36+2
f(x) = x^2+12x+38

// either graph this function, or set f(x) = 0 and use the quadratic formula.

//quadratic formula method

x^2+12x+38 = 0

to find the roots use the quadratic. if you don't know what that is, look on Khan Academy.
