List the solutions to the quadratic function below.

Question

 f(x)=x^2-4x+5 

Answer 1

I assume you meant to say solve for x in f(x)=0. Use the quadratic formula.

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)] / (2a)

a = 1

b = -4

c = 5

Plug in the numbers, evaluate, and simplify. Note that the discriminant is negative, so you will get two complex roots.
