Mathematics

Answer:

p = 6, q = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the left side and compare to right side

y² + 5y - 6

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the y- term (+ 5)

The factors are + 6 and - 1, since

6 × - 1 = - 6 and 6 - 1 = + 5, thus

y² + 5y - 6 = (y + 6)(y - 1)

Compare with (y + p)(y + q) , then

p = 6 and q = - 1

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below?
Fantom [35]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (-2, 3) and (1, -3). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-3-3}{1-(-2)}=\dfrac{-6}{3}=-2\\\\y-(-3)=-2(x-1)\\\\y+3=-2(x-1)

The standard form: Ax + By = C. Convert:

y+3=-2(x-1)      <em>use distributive property</em>

y+3=-2x+2         <em>subtract 3 from both sides</em>

y=-2x-1       <em>add 2x to both sides</em>

\boxed{2x+y=-1}\to\boxed{c.}
