Answer:
[tex]4x^2 -4x - 48 = 0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]x= -3 \ or\ 4[/tex] -- roots
[tex]n= 4[/tex] --- leading coefficient
Required
Calculate the quadratic equation
[tex]x= -3 \ or\ 4[/tex]
Split to 2:
[tex]x = -3\ or\ x = 4[/tex]
Equate both to 0
[tex]x +3 = 0\ or\ x - 4= 0[/tex]
Multiply both together:
[tex](x + 3) * (x - 4) = 0 * 0[/tex]
[tex](x + 3) * (x - 4) = 0[/tex]
[tex]x^2 -4x +3x - 12 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x^2 -x - 12 = 0[/tex]
Multiply both sides by the leading coefficient, n
[tex]n * [x^2 -x - 12] = 0 * n[/tex]
[tex]4 * [x^2 -x - 12] = 0 * 4[/tex]
[tex]4 * [x^2 -x - 12] = 0[/tex]
Open brackets
[tex]4x^2 -4x - 48 = 0[/tex]
