how do i solve a question that says: consider the two different quadratic function of the form f(x)=4x^2-qx+25 ?? HELP
it looks like there is information missing

sorry it also says "the graph of each function has its vertex on the x-axis. it asks to find both values of q... soryy and thanks!!
4x^2-qx+25 would have to be a perfect square trinomial
if you know hoe to find a determinant of a quadratic, the rest is to set it to 0
does: b^2 - 4ac ring a bell?
yes ofc! thanks a lot!
q^2 -4(4)(25) = 0 will give you vales for q that make it a perfect square trinomial ;) good luck
*if you know "hoe" to find a determinant* oh man...
