50+20x=250
-50. -50

20x=200

Divide both sides by 20
X=10

Write the equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the point (1,-3) and a slope of -2

Alborosie

Answer:y=-2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,-3) and a slope of -2

Use Formula

Y= mx +b to find b. By using the slope and point given .

M is slope

Y is -3

X Is 1

Y=mx+b

-3= -2(1)+b

-3= -2+b

-3+2=b

-1=b

Now create the equation by inputting the slope they gave you which is -2 and answer we solved for b which is -1 .

Y= -2x-1

Identify the x-intercepts of the function below f(x)=x^2+12x+24

damaskus [11]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

Given, $f(x)=x^{2}+12 x+24$ -- eqn 1

x-intercepts of the function are the points where function touches the x-axis, which means they are zeroes of the function.

Now, let us find the zeroes using quadratic formula for f(x) = 0.

$X=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here, for (1) a = 1, b= 12 and c = 24

$X=\frac{-(12) \pm \sqrt{(12)^{2}-4 \times 1 \times 24}}{2 \times 1}$

$\begin{array}{l}{X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{144-96}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{48}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm \sqrt{16 \times 3}}{2}} \\\\ {X=\frac{-12 \pm 4 \sqrt{3}}{2}} \\ {X=\frac{2(-6+2 \sqrt{3})}{2}, \frac{2(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}{2}} \\\\ {X=(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})}\end{array}$

Hence the x-intercepts of $\mathrm{x}^{2}+12 \mathrm{x}+24=0 \text { are }(-6+2 \sqrt{3}),(-6-2 \sqrt{3})$
