when it asks to find the largest solution to 5 decimals, what's the initial value i start with for Xo and how many iterations should i do? thank you

yes sorry i ment that formula. So this equation has no roots(complex)

Homework Statement 5x^2+2x+1=0 Homework Equations -b +- sqrt{b^2 +- 4ac} The Attempt at a Solution once applied the quadratic formula, i got a minus under the discrimant which means i received an error. any other recommendations on how to solve this baby?

i got the answer for |x-2|(greater than or equal to) 4 = x (less than or equal to) 2 or x (greater than or equal to) 6?

ahh so the solution is all 3 intervals? should i do it the same way to solve 1 (less than or equal to) | x + 2 | (less than or equal to) 4 ?

so my less than or equal to is correct but other is wrong ?

hey guys just checking if this is correct... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |x-2|(greater than and equal to) 4 = -2 (greater than and equal to) x (greater than and equal to) 6 is this correct? thanks u and 1 (less than or equal...
