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

OpenStudy (amistre64):

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!!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

4x^2-qx+25 would have to be a perfect square trinomial

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if you know hoe to find a determinant of a quadratic, the rest is to set it to 0

OpenStudy (amistre64):

does: b^2 - 4ac ring a bell?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ofc! thanks a lot!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

q^2 -4(4)(25) = 0 will give you vales for q that make it a perfect square trinomial ;) good luck

OpenStudy (uri):

*if you know "hoe" to find a determinant* oh man...
