Improved answer:

First rearrange this quadratic equation which will have two solutions :

2x2-10x-6 = 0

Simplify the equation by dividing all terms by 2:

x2-5x-3 = 0

Then by using the quadratic equation formula it will work out as:

x = (5 + the square root of 37)/2

or x = (5 - the square root of 37)/2

What is the max or min Fx equals -2x plus 10x plus 6?

I'm going to assume you mean F(x) = -2x2 + 10x + 6 as -2x plus 10x = 8x...First differentiate -2x2 + 10x + 6:dy/dx = -4x + 10Set dy/dx = 0:-4x + 10 = 0Find x:10 = 4x2.5 = xFind y at x =2.5:y = -2(2.5)2 + 10(2.5) + 6 = -12.5 + 25 +6 = 18.5So max or min is at (2.5, 18.5)To find out whether it is max or min differentiate twice:d2y/dx2 = -4If its negative, point will be a maximumIf its positive, point will be a minimum.In this case, a maximum occurs at (2.5, 18.5).
