Answer:

1. Re-writing an equation to remove all the variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

Backtracking is the procedure required for solving problems that has series of parts combined as one. It involves the retracing each part after one or two parts has been solved to solve the whole problem.

In mathematics when given an equation with variables, the solution can be obtained by calculating the values of each variable. To determine the final solution sometimes requires substitution procedure.

The best option that describe backtracking in maths-sense is; re-writing an equation to remove all the variables.

The line $y = 3$ intersects the graph of $y = 4x^2 + x - 1$ at the points $A$ and $B$. The distance between $A$ and $B$ can be w

raketka [301]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the points $A$ and $B$ .

We know that the $y$ -coordinates of both are $3$ .

So let's first solve:

$3=4x^2+x-1$

Subtract 3 on both sides:

$0=4x^2+x-1-3$

Simplify:

$0=4x^2+x-4$

I'm going to use the quadratic formula, $x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , to solve.

We must first compare to the quadratic equation, $ax^2+bx+c=0$ .

$a=4$

$b=1$

$c=-4$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1^2-4(4)(-4)}}{2(4)}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1+64}}{8}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{65}}{8}$

Since the distance between the points $A$ and $B$ is horizontal. We know this because they share the same $y-coordinate$ .This means we just need to find the positive difference between the $x$ -values we found for the points of $A$ and $B$ .
