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

4/3 = (-3 - r)/(2 - 5)

4/3 = (-3 - r)/(-3)

-4 = -3 - r

-1 = -r

r = 1

What are the roots of the quadratic equation 2x2+7x+4=0? Select all that apply.

skad [1K]

Answer:

option A and B

$x=\frac{-7+\sqrt{17}} {4}$

and

$x=\frac{-7-\sqrt{17}} {4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$2x^2+7x+4=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$2x^2+7x+4=0$

$a=2\\b=7\\c=4$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-7\pm\sqrt{7^{2}-4(2)(4)}} {2(2)}$

$x=\frac{-7\pm\sqrt{17}} {4}$

$x=\frac{-7+\sqrt{17}} {4}$

and

$x=\frac{-7-\sqrt{17}} {4}$

How do you solve, 3r+2(12r+7)less then or equal to 5r-8

nignag [31]

Answer:

r ≤ -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question

<h3> 3r+2(12r+7) ≤ 5r-8</h3><h3>It can be solve by Simplifying and Reordering the terms</h3>

3r + 2(12r) + 2(7) ≤ 5r - 8

3r + 24r + 14 ≤ 5r - 8

27r + 14 ≤ 5r - 8

27r - 5r +14 + 8 ≤ 0

22r + 22 ≤ 0

22r ≤ -22

Move term containing r to the left, all term to the right.

r ≤ -22/22

simplifying

r ≤ -1

all negative integers which are smaller than or equal to -1
