Quadratic equation
[ilmath]ax^2+bx+c\eq 0[/ilmath]

Information

Only turning point

  • [math]\frac{d}{dx}\big[ax^2+bx+c\big]\Big\vert_{x}\eq 2ax+b[/math]

We are interested in the derivative being zero, ie:

  • [ilmath]2ax+b\eq 0[/ilmath]
    [ilmath]\implies 2ax\eq -b[/ilmath]
    [math]\implies x\eq\frac{-b}{2a} [/math] Confirmed
