Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
x = -2 + sqr5 and x = -2 -sqr5
a(x - (-2-sqr5))(x-(-2+sqr5)
= a(x+2+sqr5)(x +2-sqr5)
=a(x+2)^2 -5)
=a(x^2 +4x -1)
=5 = a(16-16-1)=-a
a =-5
f(x)= -5x^2 -20x+5
Aa O.
asked 03/21/19Where the x intercepts is -2 +/- √5, containing the point (-4,5)... the answer is supposed to be -5x^2-20x+5 but I keep getting the wrong answer.
