Answer:
<u>The slope is -3.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is the Rise/Run between the two points. The change in y for every change in x. Take the two points and calculate the:
RISE = (-6 - 3) = -9
RUN = (8 - 5) = 3
Rise/Run, or slope, is = -9/3 or -3
I graphed a line with slope of -3 and then added 18 to force the line to intersect the two given points.
Answer:
C) Both
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
To solve the given equation, we can use the Zero Product Property according to which if the product <em>A.B = 0</em>, then either A = 0 OR B = 0.
Using this property:
So, Erik's solution strategy would work.
Now, let us discuss about Caleb's solution strategy:
Multiply i.e.
=
So, the equation becomes:
Comparing this equation to standard quadratic equation:
a = 3, b = -10, c = -8
So, this can be solved using the quadratic formula.
The answer is same from both the approaches.
So, the correct answer is:
C) Both
