Solve the given equation. state the number and type of roots.
x2 + 2x – 48 = 0
question 20 options:
a. the equation has two real roots, 6 and 8.
b. the equation has two real roots, 6 and –8.
c. the equation has two real roots, –6 and –8.
d. the equation has two real roots, –6 and 8.

the answer is (-8,-5)

step-by-step explanation:

the endpoint to midpoint is half the length. the length is (-2,-1) so when you are at the midpoint just add it to it to find your answer -6+(-2)= -8 and -4+(-1)=-5 so (-8,-5)

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.
