Factor the equation. Remember the value should add to the b value and multiply to the c value.
x^2-x-12= 0
(x-4)(x+3)=0
Use the zero product property to find roots
x-4=0
x=4
x+3=0
x=-3
Final answer: x=-3, x=4
Answer:
slope: -(9/8)
y-intercept: 7
equation: y = -(9/8)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the slope.
<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (8 , -2)
(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 7)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
<em>m </em>= (7 - (-2))/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = (7 + 2)/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = 9/-8
Your slope is -(9/8)
Solve for the y-intercept. Plug in your slope into the slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Let:
(x , y) = (0 , 7) & m = -(9/8)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
7 = -(9/8)(0) + b
Simplify:
7 = (-9/8 * 0) + b
7 = (0) + b
b = 7
Your y-intercept is 7.

Happy New Year from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Proof by ASA congruence postulate. See below
Discussion:
Fact 1 : angle A = angle T (given)
Fact 2: The angles on both sides of point X are equal as vertical angles
are equal.
From these facts it follows that angle M = angle H (as all plane triangles have 180 degrees). Also AM = TH (given) so
In the left triangle In the right triangle
(angle M, side AM, angle A) = (angle H, side TH, angle T)
Hence the triangles have two congruent angles, and congruent sides included between the angles, so they are congruent by ASA.
Thank you,
MrB
