Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given two points, the y - intercept and the x - intercept.
The y - intercept being: ( 0, -7 )
The x - intercept being: ( 1, 0 )
The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is:
y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y - intercept.
We already have the y - intercept. So far we have:
y = mx - 7
What we're missing is the slope.
To find the slope, we can use this formula:
, where
and
are the x - coordinates of both points and
and
are the y - coordinates of both points.
We now have the missing piece, the slope, so the equation now is:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
13.8654599313 and -0.8654599313
Step-by-step explanation:
If one of the numbers is x, then the other is 13-x, and their product is ...
x(13 -x) = -12
x^2 -13x = 12 . . . . multiply by -1 and simplify
x^2 -13x +6.5^2 = 12 +6.5^2 . . . . complete the square
(x -6.5)^2 = 54.25
x -6.5 = √54.25
x = 6.5 +√54.25 ≈ 13.8654599313
and the other number is ...
13 -x = 13 -13.8654599313 = -0.8654599313
The two numbers are 13.8654599313 and -0.8654599313.
