An expression is shown below:

f(x) = -16x^2 + 24x + 16

Part A: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work.

I think the answer is (-0.5, 0) and (2, 0) but I'm not really good with these and I just want to double check

HI!

danjs · Answer

first, factor out anything common to all the terms, in this case take a -4 out

misty1212 · Answer

put $$f(x) = -16x^2 + 24x + 16 =0$$ and solve for $x$

misty1212 · Answer

you might divide by $-8$ first to make it easier

misty1212 · Answer

$$2x^2-3x-2=0$$ then try to factor, use the quadratic formula or cheat either way
