$f (y) = y^{2} + 10 \div y^{2} - 5 y - 24$

Step 1

Rewrite the function as an equation.

$y = y^{2} + 10 \div y^{2} - 5 y - 24$

Step 2

Rewrite the division as a fraction.

$y = y^{2} + \frac{10}{y^{2}} - 5 y - 24$

Step 3

Graph each side of the equation. The solution is the x-value of the point of intersection.

$y \approx - 2.6159302, - 0.72280438, 0.60559557, 8.73313901$
