Find the largest value of $x$ such that $3x^2 + 17x + 15 = 2x^2 + 21x + 12 - 5x^2 + 17x + 34.$
Given 3x2 + 17x + 15 = 2x2 + 21x + 12 – 5x2 + 17x + 34
Combine like terms 6x2 . . . We can stop here; no need to bother with the other terms.
The highest order term is the "squared term" and it is positive, which means that the curve
is a parabola opening upward, for which there is no largest value of x. It continues forever.
We could say it approaches infinity, with the caveat that infinity can never be used as a value.
