4 0

Answer: x = 6.32 or -0.32

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 6x + 10  = 0

No we divide the expression by 2 to make the coefficient of x² equals 1

We now have

x² - 3x + 5     = 0

Now we remove 5 to the other side of the equation

x² - 3x          = -5

we add to both side square of  half the coefficient of x which is 3

x² - 3x + ( ⁻³/₂)²  = -5 + (⁻³/₂)²

(x  -  ³/₂)²           = -5 + ⁹/₄

Resolve into fraction

(x  - ³/₂)²             = ⁻¹¹/4

Take the roots of the equation

 x - ³/₂               = √¹¹/₄

 x - ³/₂               = √11/₂

x                       = ³/₂ ± 3.32/₂

                         = 3+ 3.32 or 3 - 3.32

                         =  6.32 or - 0.32

Which equation has the least steep graph? A. y = x + 6 B. y = -x - 9 C. y = 2x + 1 D. y = -7x - 2
maria [59]

Answer:

A and B.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>To get to know the graph with least slope, we have to write all equations in the form <u>y=mx + c. </u></h3>

where m is the slope and c is the the y-intercept.

A. y = x + 6

For this equation m = 1

B. y = -x - 9  

For equation B, m = -1

C. y = 2x + 1  

In this equation, m = 2  

D. y = -7x - 2

In equation D, m = -7

The equation with the highest slope is D while the one with the least slope/steep is <em>A and B.</em>
