Answer 1

Values of X??

There is no X in your problem.

Answer 2

I know, that's what the question asked, but I think that they mean the value for p.

Answer 3

We can't guess what "they" meant. There is no answer to this question.

Answer 4

if they did mean p, i think it is just quadratics or something. have a look in your textbook for quadratics.

Ive forgotten the right way to do it, sorry.

Answer 5

Use the quadratic formula to solve for the variable, p.
I would use google or another search engine to find the formula so you can plug all the numbers in correctly.

Answer 6

quadradic formula:

a+/- sqrt[(b^2-4ac)/2a]

solve for p.

Answer 7

correction:

p= -b+/- sqrt[(b^2-4ac)/2a]

NOW you can solve for p.
