Homework Statement


Find Range

Homework Equations


y=8x^2+8x+5

The Attempt at a Solution



y-5=8x^2+8x Subtracted five both sides

(y-1)/8=(x+1)x divided 8 to both sides, and factored x out.

The x^2+x part has me stumped.

Hi My8th! Welcome to PF! :smile:

(try using the X2 button just above the Reply box :wink:)

solve 8x2 + 8x + 5 - y = 0 :wink:
