for which value of x does f(x)= -10, if f(x) = -4x^2+3x

@MrNood

OpenStudy (mrnood):

put -10 where ther is an x in the f(x) you will end up with a quadratic in x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is -4x^2+3x-10?

OpenStudy (mrnood):

(btw this equation has 2 real solutions - so the question is wrong - there are 2 values...

OpenStudy (mrnood):

nearly right - but you have made an error with - sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah +10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would you factor that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-(2x+2) (2x-5)

OpenStudy (mrnood):

I don't think it factorises Use quadratic formula
