What is the value of c

1 answer:

5 0

X^2 + 6x = 13. We are to "complete the square."

x^2 + 6x + (6/2)^2 - (6/2)^2 = 13

Then (x+3)^2 - 9 = 13, or (x+3)^2 = 22.

then x+3 = plus or minus sqrt(22), or x = -3 plus or minus sqrt(22).

Given x^2 + 6x = 13, to complete the square we insert " 3^2 - 3^2 " between the "6x" and the "=" sign.

What is the slope 5x+2y=-2

SpyIntel [72]

The slope is -2.5 because you subtract 2y from both sides, then add two to both sides, then divide both sides by 2 to isolate y

What is the vertical distance from the origin to the point (8, 1)?

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The vertical distance is 1.

Explanation:

Coordinates are structured as ( x , y )

The "x" is horizontal and the "y" is vertical, when placed onto a graph.

In the question, 8 is "x" and 1 is "y". Meaning the vertical number is 1.

What is the approximate distance between the points (-3,-4)(-8,1) on a coordinate grid?

Alex

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-8}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{[-8-(-3)]^2+[1-(-4)]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-8+3)^2+(1+4)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{25+25}\implies d=\sqrt{50}\implies d\approx 7.071$
