Answer: b = -6, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert into factored form :
(b+6)(b-4)
Then make one of the terms 0.
Answer:
1) gradient (00) (-2 4) = y2-y1 / 2-1 = 4/-2 = -2 m = -2/1 means = m = -2 (negative slope) 2) gradient y2-y1 / x2-x1 = 3-0 / 2-0 = 3/2 = (1 1/2)/1 m = 1 1/2 (positive slope) we use the formula y-values divided by the change in the x-values. The equation of the gradient each goes like this 1) y = -2x as y is at origin nothing else to add The equation of the gradient each goes like this 2) y = 1 1/2x The equation of the point formula 1) we take the y -y1 = m (x +x 1) = y-0 = -2x (x +0) (as m = -2) y = -2(x +0) and The equation of the point formula 2) y - 0 = m ( x +x1) y - 0 = 1 1/2( x +0) = y = 1 1/2( x +0)
