-2x^2 - 4x + 7 correct?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x can be all real numbers.
If you make x be 2 then the answer would be -2(2)^2 - 4(2) + 7 which equals -9 which is still a real number.

Where does the graph of y = 6x2 − 5x − 6 cross the x-axis?
(−, 0) and (6, 0)
(, 0) and (−6, 0)
(, 0) and (−, 0)
(−, 0) and (, 0)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well first you need to factor them down into the form (2x + a) (3x +b) and then set that equal to zero and solve for x to get your answer.

can u help me do that?

I'm working on it.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The factored form of that is (2x - 3) (3x + 2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
If you set that to zero you get two equations
2x - 3 = 0
3x + 2 = 0
Solving for x we get
x = 3/2
and
x = -2/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes! okay now what?

Well that's the wrong answer.... first of all. erm...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Are you sure you have the right question? because 3/2 and -2/3 should be the answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes thats what i got!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm sorry I don't know.
