You have come to the correct place if you are looking to solve the quadratic equation negative 2x squared minus 6x minus 4 equals 0, also known as -2x² - 6x - 4 = 0. Below, we walk you through how to find the answer.
To find the two possible answers to -2x^2 - 6x - 4 = 0, we will start by rewriting the equation in factored form. Then, we will create two separate equations that we can use to solve -2x² - 6x - 4 = 0.
Below is negative 2x squared minus 6x minus 4 in factored form. As you can see, -2x² - 6x - 4 has been grouped into two sets of parentheses.
-(2x + 2)(x + 2)
Next, we set each set of parentheses equal to 0 and solve for x to get the two answers to -2x^2 - 6x - 4 = 0.
(2x + 2) = 0
x1 = -1
(x + 2) = 0
x2 = -2
