For the straight line defined by the points (4, 59) and (6, 83), determine the slope and y-intercept. do not round the answers.

1 answer:

6 0

Slope=(59-83)/(4-6)=12
equation of the line:
(y-59)/(x-4)=12
y-59=12x-48
y=12x+11
put x=0, y=11
so the y-intercept is 11

Solve using square root method

avanturin [10]

$\frac{1}{2}(x+5)^2 + 9 = -15$

$\frac{(x+5)^2+18}{2} = \frac{-30}{2}$

Cancel out the denominators.

(x+5)² + 18 = -30

(x+5)² = -30 - 18

(x+5)² = -48

The equation is impossible, we have a negative number.

There isn't a number that squared gives a negative number (the square is always positive).

√(x+5)² = +/- √-48

x+5 = +/- √-48

IMPOSSIBLE

You can write the result in imaginary numbers

x+5=+/- 4i√3

In the set of real numbers, the first number less than -3 is -4. True False

mariarad [96]

True, -4 seems bigger because 4 is bigger than 3 but it's negative and is further away from 0
