If x=3
Just replace the X with 3
So seven minus three equals four
If 3 is X than do 4 times 3 which that makes twelve.

Find the slope and y- intercept of x=-4

klemol [59]

Answer:

By definition, the slope of a vertical line is undefined. Because the value of x is always equal to 4 it is never equal to 0 therefore there is no y-intercept.

What does the fundamental theorem of algebra illustrate?

UNO [17]

Answer:

The fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that a polynomial equation has the same number of complex roots as its degree.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that a polynomial equation has the same number of complex roots as its degree.

We have to find the roots of this given equation.

If a quadratic equation is of the form $ax^{2}+bx +c=0$

Its roots are $\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$ and $\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$

Here the given equation is $2x^{2}-4x-1$ = 0

a = 2

b = -4

c = -1

If the roots are $x_{1} and x_{2}$ , then

$x_{1}$ = $\frac{-2+\sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4\times 2\times (-1)}}{2\times 2}$

= $\frac{4 +\sqrt{24}}{4}$

= $\frac{2+\sqrt{6} }{2}$

$x_{2}$ = $\frac{-2-\sqrt{(-4)^{2}-4\times 2\times (-1)}}{2\times 2}$

= $\frac{4 +\sqrt{8}}{4}$

= $\frac{2-\sqrt{6} }{2}$

These are the two roots of the equation.
