x^2 - 4x - 12 = 0
factors
(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0
Set (x - 6) and (x + 2) equal to 0 and solve for xx.
x - 6 = 0; x = 6
x + 2 = 0; x = -2

answer
x = -2 or x = 6

Since −12-12 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right side of the equation by adding 12 to both sides.x2−4x=12Move 12 to the left side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides.x2−4x−12=0Factor x2−4x−12x2-4x-12 using the AC method.(x−6)(x+2)=0Set x−6 equal to 0 and solve for x.x=6Set x+2 equal to 0 and solve for x.x=−2The solution is the result of x−6=0 and x+2=0x=6,−2

Find the equation in slope-intercept form that describes a line through (2, 4) with slope 0

True [87]

Since we already know that the slope is 0, x cancels out in the equation.

y = mx + b → y = b

We just need to find the y-intercept. Using the coordinate (2, 4) we can substitute with y.

4 = b

Hence, the answer is b) y = 4

The unit rate is another way of saying speed, so we divide the distance over the time. We can pick on any row

If we pick row 1, then, speed = distance/time = 90/2 = 45

Row 2 says the same thing: 135/3 = 45

So does row 3: 225/5 = 45

and so on

Because the speed is 45 mph, the unit rate is 45 miles in one hour. The term "unit" implies how much distance can be covered in one unit of time, in this case 1 hour.

You have the correct answer. Nice work.
