Standard Form: ax² + bx + c = 0
Discriminant: b² - 4ac
- Positive - 2 solutions
- Equal to 0 - 1 solution
- Negative - No solutions/Imaginary
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
x² - 6x - 10 = 0
<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>
<em>Compare quadratic.</em>
x² - 6x - 10 = 0 ↔ ax² + bx + c = 0
a = 1, b = -6, c = -10
<u>Step 3: Find Discriminant</u>
- Substitute in variables [Discriminant]: (-6)² - 4(1)(-10)
- [Discriminant] Evaluate exponents: 36 - 4(1)(-10)
- [Discriminant] Multiply: 36 + 40
- [Discriminant] Add: 76
This tells us that our quadratic has 2 real solutions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We take two points (0,-3) and (4,0)
eq. of line thro' two points is y-y1=m(x-x1)
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(0+3)/(4-0)=3/4
Reqd. eq . is y-(-3)=3/4(x-0)
or y=3/4(x)-3
