Answer: 4=-2x -1 and y=-1 2x
Let <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> be the two numbers. Then
<em>a</em> + <em>b</em> = -4
<em>a b</em> = -2
Solve the second equation for <em>b</em> :
<em>b</em> = -2/<em>a</em>
Substitute this into the first equation:
<em>a</em> - 2/<em>a</em> = -4
Multiply both sides by <em>a</em> :
<em>a</em>² - 2 = -4<em>a</em>
Move 4<em>a</em> to the left side:
<em>a</em>² + 4<em>a</em> - 2 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for <em>a</em> :
<em>a</em> = (-4 ± √(4² - 4(-2))) / 2
<em>a</em> = -2 ± √6
If <em>a</em> = -2 + √6, then
-2 + √6 + <em>b</em> = -4
<em>b</em> = -2 - √6
In the other case, we end up with the same numbers, but <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are swapped.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
In this exercise, we have the following equation:

We can write this Quadratic Equation in Standard Form as follows:

So this is a Non-perfect Square Trinomial. To factor out this, let's choose two numbers such that:
- The sum is -14
- The product is 24
Those numbers are:
- -12 and -2
- SUM: -12-2 = -14
- PRODUCT: (-12)(-2)=24
So we can write this as:

Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of the function f(x) from x=a to x=b is given by:

From the question, the exponential function goes through (0,30) and (20,80).
This implies that f(0)=30 and f(20)=80
Therefore the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 20 is



The second choice is correct
