I hope the choices for the numerators of the solutions are given.
I am showing the complete work to find the solutions of this equation , it will help you to find an answer of your question based on this solution.
The standard form of a quadratic equation is :
ax² + bx + c = 0
And the quadratic formula is:
x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
So, first step is to compare the given equation with the above equation to get the value of a, b and c.
So, a = 10, b = -19 and c = 6.
Next step is to plug in these values in the above formula. Therefore,
So,
So,
Hope this helps you!
Actually Welcome to the concept of Parallel lines.
We must first understand that, Parallel Lines always have a same Slope, hence the 'm' value in y=mx+c equation will same, here it is '1/2' in the above equation,
so the points here are (-6,-17)
==>
(y-(-17)) = m(x-(-6))
==>
here m = 1/2 ,hence
y+17 = 1/2(x+6)
==> y+17 = 1/2(x) + 3
==> y = 1/2(x) + 3 - 17
==> y = 1/2(x) - 14
hence the Option 4.) is the correct answer!!
