Solve the given equation. State the number and type of roots. x² + 3x - 4

x=1, x=-4

Two distinct real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 3x - 4 = (x - 1) (x + 4)

x=1, x=-4

Two distinct real roots

Answer: (x+4) * (X-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Into two binomial (x + 4) x (x - 1)

Explanation:

The equation in the

A

x

2

+

B

x

+

C

The C is negative which indicates that one binomial will be negative and one binomial will be positive.

The B is positive which indicates that the positive binomial will be larger than the negative binomial

The B is + 3 which tells that the difference in the two factors is 3

so

(x+4) * (X-1)
