He made a mistake in step #2. It seemed to be a trivial mistake because it involved signs, but it still had a great impact. Since step#2, his solution was already wrong.

Instead of
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = 1 + 48 = 49

What he did is
(-1)²-4(2)(-6) = -1 + 48 = 47

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the line shown in the graph?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The y intercept is where the line crosses the Y (vertical) axis. In this case, it happens at y=2

The slope is the rate of change. For every 1 space it moves on the horizontal axis, it moves 3 vertical spaces. It is going down, so it is -3
