Question Prompt: Question prompt: Find the x-intercepts of the quadratic equation x2+3x−4=0 using the quadratic formula.
Identify Values: Identify the values of a, b, and c from the quadratic equation.a=1 (coefficient of x2)b=3 (coefficient of x)c=−4 (constant term)
Plug into Formula: Plug the values of a, b, and c into the quadratic formula.x=2a−b±b2−4acx=2(1)−(3)±(3)2−4(1)(−4)
Simplify Square Root: Simplify under the square root.x=2−3±9+16x=2−3±25
Solve for x: Simplify the square root. x=2−3±5
Solve for x: Simplify the square root.x=2−3±5Solve for the two possible values of x.x=2−3+5 or x=2−3−5x=22 or x=2−8x=1 or x=−4
