Concept explainers
The function intersects the x-axis
Answer to Problem 31PPS
The graph is not crossing the x-axis, so there are no real solutions for the given equation
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The function,
Concept Used:
The solutions of a quadratic equation are given by the points where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis.
In order find the solutions of the given function
The zeros of the function are the points where the graph of the function intersects the x-axis as shown below
There is no factor of this equation .
The graph of the function
From the above graph of the function it is clear that the zeros of the function occur at the points
Thus, the graph is not crossing the x-axis, so there are no real solutions for the given equation
