Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 3 , thus

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (1, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 3 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 3 = - 5

y = 3x - 5 ← equation of line

Use the method of completing the square to transform the quadratic equation into the equation form (x – p)2 = q. x2 - 12x - 9 =

marissa [1.9K]

Hence, the correct answer is: C) (x - 6)^2 = 45

Further explanation:

Given equation is:

$x^2-12x-9=0$

We will move the constant term on other side of the equation

$x^2-12x=9$

To complete the square, we will take the coefficient of x and divide it by 2, as we already know that one term is x.

$\frac{12}{2}=6$

So, adding (6)^2 on both sides

$(x)^2-2.x.6+(6)^2=9+(6)^2\\(x-6)^2=9+36\\(x-6)^2=45$

Hence, the correct answer is: C) (x - 6)^2 = 45
