Answer:
x = - 7, x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 6x = 7
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 7 + 9
(x + 3)² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ± = ± 4 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 4
x = - 3 - 4 = - 7
x = - 3 + 4 = 1
Solution set = { - 7, 1 }
This equation is written in slope intercept form
Remember that the slope intercept formula is:
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
In this case:
slope (m) is 2
y-intercept (b) is (0, - 1)
To plot this on a coordinate plane plot the y-intercept (0, -1).
To graph the rest of the line you can use what you know about the slope. Rise up two units and over to the right one unit from the y-intercept. You should arrive at the point (1, 1)
Then, again from the y-intercept, go down two units and to the left one unit. You should arrive at the point (-1, -3)
Now draw a straight line through the y-intercept and the other two points you just found
The image of the graph is shown below
