Solve for x y=ax^2+c

Problem

y=a*x^2+c

Solution

1. Subtract the constant c from both sides of the equation to isolate the term containing x

y−c=a*x^2

2. Divide both sides by the coefficient a to isolate x^2

(y−c)/a=x^2

3. Take the square root of both sides to solve for x remembering to include both the positive and negative roots.

x=±√(,(y−c)/a)

Final Answer

x=±√(,(y−c)/a)
