Answer:

x^2 -4x +2 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The other root is the conjugate of the given one, so is 2-√2. The quadratic equation in factored form is then ...

(x -2-√2)(x -2+√2) = 0

Expanding this, we get ...

(x -2)^2 -(√2)^2 = 0

x^2 -4x +4 -2 = 0

x^2 -4x +2 = 0 . . . . the equation you're looking for

We know the slope formula

m=-a/b
m=-4/2
m=-2

Parallel lines have equal slope so it has m=-2

An airplane flying at attitude of 32,000 feet descends at a rate of 1,300 feet per minute. If the plane descends for 15 minutes,

Furkat [3]

Since the plane descends 1,300 feet per minute it would descend 19,500 feet after 15 minutes (1,300 x 15 = 19,500) Subtract this from the plane's initial altitude 32,000 and the new altitude will be 12,500. (32,000-19,500=12,500)

Georgia [21]

Malia : y = 8.1x.....this tells me she makes 8.10 per hr worked

Bill : if he earned 144.90 for working 18 hrs.....144.90/18 = 8.05 per hr worked.

so Malia makes 5 cents more per hr worked.

Is that the answer ur looking for ?
