<h3>Answer: A) linear function</h3>

Each time x goes up by 2, y decreases by 4

This indicates we have a linear function. The slope in this case would be

m = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x) = -4/2 = -2

The y intercept can be found by following these steps

y = mx+b

0 = -2(5)+b

0 = -10+b

10 = b

b = 10

Therefore, the equation of this line is y = -2x+10. Plug in something like x = 1 and it should lead to y = 8. The same applies for any other column of x,y values.

Which are the solutions of x2 = –7x – 8?

Yanka [14]

You can start by rewriting the equation so that the right side equals zero. Add $-7x$ and $8$ to both sides.

$x^2+7x+8=0$

You can now use the quadratic equation (below), where $a=1, b=7,$ and $c=8$ , to find solutions. Plug in these values for $a, b,$ and $c$ into the equation and simplify.

$\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4(ac)}} {2a}$
$\frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{7^2-4(1 \times 8)}} {2 \times 1}$
$\frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{49-32}} {2}$
$\frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{17}} {2}$

The final answer is the combination of both solutions.
$x=\frac{-7}{2} \pm \frac{\sqrt{17}} {2} \approx -3.5 \pm 2.06.$

Or approximately...
$x=(-3.5-2.06) \approx -5.56, (-3.5+2.06) \approx-1.44$
