Answer:

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula tells you the slope is ...

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

Fill in the point coordinates, we find the slope to be ...

m = (6 -9)/(-5 -(-5)) = -3/0

This slope is undefined.

___

It means the line is a vertical line. The constant must match the x-coordinates of the points:

x = -5 . . . . the line through the given points

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = x2 + 5x + 5 written in simplest radical form?

satela [25.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

$x = \frac{ - b + - \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} \\ x = \frac{ - 5 + - \sqrt{ {5}^{2} - 4(5) } }{2} \\ x = \frac{ - 5 + - \sqrt{25 - 20} }{2} \\ x = \frac{ - 5 + - \sqrt{5} }{2}$

Therefore, the zeroes would be:

$x1 = \frac{ - 5 + \sqrt{5} }{2} \\ x2 = \frac{ - 5 - \sqrt{5} }{2}$
