Q. Solve using the quadratic formula.d2+4d+4=0Write your answers as integers, proper or improper fractions in simplest form, or decimals rounded to the nearest hundredth.d=_____ or d=_____
Identify values of a, b, c: Identify the values of a, b, and c in the quadratic equationd2+4d+4=0. Compare d2+4d+4=0 with the standard form ax2+bx+c=0. a=1b0b1
Substitute values into quadratic formula: Substitute the values of a, b, and c into the quadratic formula to find d. The quadratic formula is d=2a−b±b2−4ac. d=2⋅(1)−(4)±(4)2−4⋅(1)⋅(4)
Simplify expression under square root: Simplify the expression under the square root (the discriminant). (4)2−4⋅(1)⋅(4)=16−16=0
Continue simplifying quadratic formula: Continue simplifying the quadratic formula with the values found.d=2−4±0Since 0=0, the equation simplifies to:d=2−4±0
Solve for two possible values: Solve for the two possible values of d.d=(−4+0)/2 or d=(−4−0)/2Both expressions simplify to the same value:d=−4/2d=−2
