Answer:
slope = -3
y-intercept = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + <em>b</em>
m = slope; <em>b</em> = y-intercept
y= -3x <em>- 2</em>
m = -3 = slope
<em>b = -2 = y-intercept</em>
The slope is given by rise over run, or difference in y over difference in x. Therefore in this problem that is (-2-4)/(-3-3) => (-6)/(-6) => 1
Final answer:
The slope is 1.
Hope I could help :)
I will get you started.
x^2+4x-4 = 8
x^2 + 4x - 4 - 8 = 0
x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0
You must now use the quadratic formula.
In the formula, a = 1, b = 4, and c = -12.
Take it from here.
