Question

Solve the equation by graphing. If exact roots cannot be found, state the consecutive integers between which the roots are located x2 +6x +8= 0

Answer 1

x= -4 and x=-2

Explanation:

Using a graphing calculator (See picture attached) we find that the solution to the equation are the x-values at which the graph of the function intercepts the x-axis. It ocurrs at x= -4 and x=-2.

Given that exact roots were found, there's no need to state the consecutive integers between which the roots are located.
