<em>Step #1: </em>
Make sure the equation is in the form of [ Ax² + Bx + C = 0 ].
Yours is already in that form.
A = 1
B = 2
C = -2
<em>Step #2:</em>
The 'discriminant' for that equation is [ B² - 4 A C ].
That's all there is to it, but it can tell you a lot about the roots of the equation.
-- If the discriminant is zero, then the left side of the equation is a perfect square,
and both roots are equal.
-- If the discriminant is greater than zero, the the roots are real and not equal.
-- If the discriminant is less than zero, then the roots are complex numbers.
The discriminant of your equation is [ B² - 4 A C ] = 2² - 4(1)(-2) = 4 + 8 = 12
Your equation has two real, unequal roots.
Answer:
10.22
Step-by-step explanation:
2.45 * 10 =20.45 - 3.67 * 10 =30.67
30.67 - 20.45
30 - 20 = 10
.67 - .45 = .22
30.67 - 20.45 = 10.22

Answer:
y=5x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope formula:
y=mx+b
- m stands for slope
- b stands for y intercept.
Plug the information in:
y=5x+2
