Harrys answer would be 8-7, so 1 and Terry's answer would be 11. 1-11 is negative 10

Find the zeroes of the following equation:

weqwewe [10]

Answer: $\bold{x=\dfrac{1\pm \sqrt5}{2}}$

both zeros are irrational numbers

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Note: The question would have made more sense if if it was 2/x = x - 1 but I will answer it as written.

$\dfrac{1}{x}=x-1\qquad \text{Restriction: }x\neq 0\\\\\\\text{Cross multiply, simplify, and set equal to zero:}\\1=x(x-1)\\\\1=x^2-x\\\\0=x^2-x-1\\\\\\\text{This is not factorable so you will need to use Quadratic Formula:}\\\\x=\dfrac{-(-1)\pm \sqrt{(-1)^2-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{1\pm \sqrt5}{2}$

Y intercept (3,1) and (-4,-6)?

lana [24]

Answer:

y-intercept: (0, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine by how much x (the run) and y (the rise) change as you go from (-4, -6) to (3, 1): The change in x is 7 and that in y is also 7. Thus, the slope is

m = 7/7, or m = 1.

Using the point-slope form and the point (3, 1), we get:

y - 1 = 1(x - 3), or y = 1 + x - 3, or y = x - 2

Comparing this to y = mx + b, we see that the y-intercept is -2.
