Answer:

X = unknown

The highest degree of x is 2 .

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all x is the unknown variable to be determined by solving quadratically

Quadratic equation was chooses because of the degree of x.

The highest degree of x is 2 .

That's the the reason why the value of x will always be double.

If solving linear equation that has degree one, the value of x is one

If solving polynomial, the value of x will be 3 above.

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through (-4,1) and (4,3).

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

An equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through (-4,1) and (4,3) will be:

$y-1=\frac{1}{4}\left(x+4\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

(-4,1)

(4,3)

Finding the slope between the points (-4,1) and (4,3)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-4,\:1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(4,\:3\right)$

$m=\frac{3-1}{4-\left(-4\right)}$

Refine

$m=\frac{1}{4}$

Point slope form:

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

where

m is the slope of the line

(x₁, y₁) is the point

in our case,

m = 1/4

(x₁, y₁) = (-4,1)

substituting the values m = 1/4 and the point (-4,1) in the point slope form of line equation.

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

$y-1=\frac{1}{4}\left(x-\left(-4\right)\right)$

$y-1=\frac{1}{4}\left(x+4\right)$

Thus, an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through (-4,1) and (4,3) will be:

$y-1=\frac{1}{4}\left(x+4\right)$
