Answer:
{-2,10}
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 8x = 20
Take the coefficient of x
-8
Divide by 2
-8/2 =-4
Square it
(-4)^2 =16
Add this to each side
x^2 - 8x+16 = 20+16
x^2 - 8x+16 = 36
The left hand side becomes( x + (-8/2) )^2
(x - 4)^2 = 36
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x - 4)^2) =±sqrt( 36)
x-4 = ±6
Add 4 to each side
x-4+4 = 4±6
x = 4±6
x = 4+6 x = 4-6
x = 10 x = -2
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Gradient is the same as slope to get your answer follow this formula y2 - y1 divided x2 -x1 in this problem it will look like this
4 - (-4) /1 - (-1) =
8 / 2 =
= 4
I hope this helps!!
