Answer:
m = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
m = (4 - -1) / 1 - -4) = 5/5 = 1
Well the thing is you didn't tell us which number but if it is 12 then i strongly believe that the answer is 3/9
Yo sup??
y=(x+4)(x-2)
to find the x intercept put y=0
0=(x+4)(x-2)
so either x=-4 or x=2
Therefore the graph intersects the x axis at -4 and 2
Lenght of x intercept=|-4-2|=6 units
y=(x+4)(x-2)
=x^2+2x-8
This is an upward opening parabola
To find the coordinates of the vertex we can apply the formula
(-b/2a,-D/4a)
b=2
a=1
D=b^2-4ac
=4-4*1*(-8)
=4+32=36
Vertex=(-2/2*1,-36/4*1)
=(-1,-9)
Hope this helps.
