Answer:

positive point:
(0,√(2))

negative points:
(0,-√(2)).

Explanation:

Factorize the given expression.


f(x)=-2x^2+4\\f(x)=-2(x^2-2)\\f(x)=-2(x-\sqrt2)(x+√(2))

Set the function equals to zero.


-2(x-\sqrt2)(x+√(2))=0\\x=√(2), -√(2)

So, the positive point is
(0,√(2)) and negative points is
(0,-√(2)).
