Answer:
x^2 - 5x = 14
x^2 - 5x-14 = 0
Now, we have to find the multiples of -14 and numbers that add/subtract to -5; this helps to find the factors.
-7+2 = -5
-7*2 = -14
Based on the above info, we can find out my factors; they are:-
(x-7)(x+2)
The value of "b" is the y-intercept.
In order to figure out slope-intercept form you need 1 coordinate and the slope.
1) Find the slope, using the 2-point slope formula: "m= y2-y1 / x2-x1".
ex. m= -5 - 3 / -4 - -6 (simplify)---> m= -4
2) Fill in the blanks for point-slope formula: "y - y1 = m (x - x1)"
(choose one coordinate, it doesn't matter which one)
ex. y - -5 = -4 (x - -4)
3) Then use basic algebra to simplify.
Answer:
x=√y+4 or x=−√y+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Add 4 to both sides.
x2−4+4=y+4
x2=y+4
Step 2: Take square root.
x=√y+4 or x=−√y+4
PR : RC = PQ : AC
so,
PQ = 2.8 inches
Hope this helps
