Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 12x + a = (x + b)²
x² - 12x + a = x² + 2xb + b²
-12 = 2b and a = b²
b = -6
a = b² = 36
Find the gradient:
m = y2-y1 / x2-x1
m = 6-(-4) / 0-1
m = 10 / -1
m = -10
Slope intercept form:
y = mx + c
Input the values from one of the points to find c (imputing (1,-4) to y=mx+c):
-4 = -10(1) + c
-4 = -10 + c
c = -4 + 10
c = 6
Therefore, the equation is:
y = -10x + 6
Absolute value is simply the non-negative version of the number regardless of its symbol
So for the absolute value of 20? the answer is just 20.
For reference, the absolute value of -20 is also just 20.
Hope the explanation helps :)
