The discriminant is b^2 -4ac
a = 1
b = -2
c = 4
discriminant = 4 -4 * 1 * 4 =
4 -16 =
-12
I get MINUS 12 as the answer but that isn't one of the choices.
As we travel from (-2, p) to (2, 2p+1), x increases by 4 and y increases by p+1. Note that -2 + 4 = 2 (which is correct), and that p + (p+1) = 2p+1 (which is also correct).
p+1
Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -------- = 9
4
Then p + 1 = 36, and p = 35.
- 8 + 6 = - 2

Answer:
x = - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given g(x) = - x - 3 and g(x) = 6, then equate, that is
- x - 3 = 6 ( add 3 to both sides )
- x = 9 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 9
