Please: Use "^" to denote exponentiation: <span>2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0
Reduce this by div. every term by 2: </span><span>x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0
Here a=1, b=4 and c = -6. Square half of b, obtaining (4/2)^2 = 4, and add, and then subtract, this 4 to x^2 + 4x - 6:
</span> x^2 + 4x +4 - 4 - 6 = 0. Rewrite the square as (x+2)^2, obtaining new equation
(x+2)^2 = 10. Take the sqrt of both sides: x+2 = plus or minus sqrt(10).
Finally, solve for x: x = -2 plus or minus sqrt(10).
Answer:
yellow or blue
Step-by-step explanation:
Prob blue
Answer:
0.45 m, 0.63 m, 0.72 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the three parts of the line be 5x, 7x and 8x
Therefore,
5x + 7x + 8x = 1.8
20x = 1.8
x = 1.8/20
x = 0.09
5x = 5*0.09 = 0.45 m
7x = 7*0.09 = 0.63 m
8x = 8*0.09 = 0.72 m
original slope = -4/3
parallel slope = -4/3
Explanation:
For a line to be parallel to anpother line, the slope of both lines must be equal.
We need to find the slope of the given line by picking any two points on the line.
Using points (-6, 5) and (0, -3)
slope formula:


The equation of the given line: y = mx + b
b = y-intercept = -3
y = -4/3x - 3
The equation line parallel to the one above could be:
y = -4/3 x + 7
This because the slope are the same
original slope = -4/3
parallel slope = -4/3
