Answer: x²-59x+114=0

explanation:

If the roots are 2 and 57, then:-

sum of roots = 2+57 = 59

and, product of roots = 2×57 = 114

the quadratic equation is given by,

x²-(sum of roots)x+(product of roots)=0

so, x²-59x+114=0 will be the desired quadratic equation.

so, none of the options are correct.

the correct answer is x²-59x+114=0.

On a math test a student, Sarah, has to identify all the coefficients and constants of the expression 9 b + 4 + y. Sarah says

mamaluj [8]

Step-by-step explanation:

4 + n + 7m

constants are just the numbers with no variables (letters)

so the constant is 4

coefficients are numbers multiplied by variables (letters)

so the coefficients are : 7 and 1

the error sarah made is forgetting the coefficient of n......because even if it is not written, n is the same as 1n....so basically, there is a coefficient for EVERY variable, even if its not written.

Using the slope and the y-intercept, graph the line represented by the following equation. Then select the correct graph. 3y = 2

Over [174]

First, let's write the given equation in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

In slope-intercept form, the slope of the line is m, and the y-intercept is b. The slope is a measure of how steep the graph is at any point and is found by doing rise over run. This means the change in y values divided by the change in x values. Next, y-intercept is just where the graph crosses the y axis.

All we need to do to get the equation in slope-intercept form is to divide each term by 3. This will isolate the y.

$y= \frac{2}{3}x-2$

As you can see, the slope of the line is 2/3, and the y-intercept is -2.

To graph the line, plot a point at (0,-2). This is the point where the graph crosses the y axis. Then from that point, count up two and right 3. Plot a point here as well. Lastly, connect the two points with a straight line.

See attached picture for the graph.
