Answer:  -1 ± <em>i</em>√35

                  ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                     6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the quadratic equation,

X =  -b ±√b² - 4ac

     ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

             2a

From the given equation, -3x² - x - 3 = 0

where a = -3, b = -1, c = -3

Now substitute for the values in the formula above

x = -(-1) ± √(-1)² - 4(-3)(-3)

      ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

                   2(-3)

x = 1 ± √ 1 - 36

     ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

           -6

x = 1 ±  √ -35

     ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻

           -6

x = -1  ±  <em>i√35   this is because it has a negative root.</em>

<em>       ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻</em>

<em>            6</em>

<em> The answer is b</em>

Line 1 passes through the points A(-15,-8) and B(-3,0). Line 2 has
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The equation of line 3 is;

y = \frac{2}{3} x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Line 1 passes through the points A(-15,-8) andn B(-3,0)

Line 2 has equation shown below;

5x - 3y + 18 = 0

Line 3 is parallel to line 1 and has the same y-intercept as line 2.

We are to determine the equation of line 3.

<u>Equation of line 1:</u>

<u />

Slope = change in y-axis ÷ change in x-axis

The slope of line 1 = \frac{0 - -8}{-3 - -15}  = \frac{8}{12} = \frac{2}{3}

Picking another point (x,y) on the line;

Slope = \frac{y - 0}{x - -3}  = \frac{2}{3}

y = \frac{2}{3} x + 2 (this is the equation of line 1)

<u>Equation of line 2:</u>

<u />

We put the equation given, of line 2, in the cartesian plane format;

3y = 5x + 18

y = \frac{5}{3} x + 6

Finally, the equation of line 2 is;

y = 1\frac{2}{3} x + 6

<u>Equation of line 3:</u>

<u />

Given: Line 3 is parallel to line 1

The slopes of two parallel lines are the same so line 3 has a slope of \frac{2}{3}

Given: Line 3 has the same y-intercept as line 2

The y-intecept of line 2 is 6 (y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0)

So the equation of line 3 is;

y = \frac{2}{3} x + 6
