anonymous · Answer

quadratic equation is $$-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}\div2a$$ plug everything in

anonymous · Answer

how would I do that? this stuff really confuses me. @Tay003

anonymous · Answer

$$-6\pm \sqrt{6^2-4(4)(2)}\div 2(4)$$

anonymous · Answer

do everything under the square root first

anonymous · Answer
