Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation: x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = -4.
The formula for the discriminant is b^2 - 4(a)(c).
Substituting the given values of a, b and c, we get:
(3)^2 - 4(1)(-4)
Evaluating this, we get 9 + 16 = 25.
The discriminant is 25.
-3 plus or minus √25
Taking this further, x = ------------------------------------
2
-3 plus or minus 5
or: x = -------------------------------- => {-4, 1} (solutions)

Two ratios that have the same value are called equivalent ratios. To find an equivalent ratio, multiply or divide both quantities by the same number.
To get the equation of the line, you need two points that belong to this line.
From the given graph, we can choose any two points: (0,-4) and (-2,0)
The general for of the linear straight line is:
y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept
First, we will calculate the slope using the following rule:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
slope (m) = (0--4) / (-2-0) = 4/-2 = -2
The equation of the line now is: y = -2x + c
Then, we will get the value of the c. To do so, we will choose any point and substitute in the equation. I will choose the point (0,-4)
y = -2x + c
-4 = -2(0) + c
c = -4
Based on the above calculations, the equation of the line is:
y = -2x - 4
