roots of equation are x values when y = 0
(x - 3) and (x - (-5)).
I will use the quadratic equation here. By inspection the discriminant shows 2 real roots. X = -b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)/2a a = 1 b = - 3 c = - 2 X = -(-3) +/- sqrt[(-3)^2 - 4(1)(-2)]2(1) X = 3 +/- sqrt(17)/2 X = [3 +/- sqrt(17]/2 exact answer.
Use the quadratic equation to find the roots of 2x2-3x-3=0.a=2, b=-3, c=-3x =[ -b +- SQRT(b2-4ac)]/2a=[--3 +- SQRT((-3)2 - 4(2)(-3))]/2*2= [3+-SQRT(9--24)]/4so the roots are x = [3+SQRT(33)]/4 and x = [3-SQRT(33)]/4
Not for all types of equations. But always in second degree equations they do. Consider a third degree equation with 3 different roots. Obviously, one of the roots can not be in a pair.
