How can I solve a quadratic equations for x in terms of y?

A quadratic involving x and y is usually in the form 'y = ax2 + bx + c'. This form is y in terms of x, so we must rearrange it. y = ax2 + bx + c y/a = x2 + bx/a + c/a y/a = x2 + bx/a + d + e, where c/a = d + e, e = (b/a)2 y/a - e = x2 + bx/a + d y/a -e = (x + b/a)2 √(y/a - e) = x + b/a √(y/a - e) - b/a = x


How many real roots does the equation 2x2-5x-3 equals 0 have?

2x2 - 5x - 3 = 0 A quadratic equation expressed in the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 has two real and distinct roots when b2 - 4ac is positive. Using the figures from the supplied equation then b2 - 4ac = 52 - (4 x 2 x -3) = 25 + 24 = 49. Therefore there are TWO real and distinct roots.


Is y equals x2 plus 2 a linear equation?

No, y=x^2 + 2 is a quadratic equation. A linear equation is one in the form y=mx+b. A quadratic has a form y=ax^2+bx+c.


How do you solve for x in the equation x2-2x-2 equals 0?

To solve for x in the equation x2 - 2x - 2 = 0, use the quadratic equation, that is: For 0 = ax2 + bx + c, the roots (values of x) are defined as: x = [-b +/- sqrt(b2 - 4ac) ] / 2a (If that's hard to understand, google "quadratic formula"). It works out to x = 2.73, -0.73.


What does the a stand for in y equals ax2 plus bx plus c?

y = ax2 + bx + cThe graph is always a parabola.'a', 'b', and 'c' are numbers. Different values for 'a', 'b', and 'c' produce parabolas with different widths,noses at different heights and different left-right locations. They determine whether the parabolaopens up or opens down, and whether it crosses the 'x' and 'y' axes, and if so, where it crosses.
