The roots of the equation f(x) = 1/2 (-(x+5))² - 4 is
x = -7.828 OR -2.1716
How to solve the equation
The equation is solved as follows
0 = 1/2 (-(x+5))² - 4
4 = 1/2 (-(x+5))²
8 = (-(x+5))²
±√8 = (-(x+5))
x + 5 = ±√8
x = 5 ± √8
x = -7.828 OR -2.1716
The solution of the equation is (-7.828, 0) (-2.172, 0)
