I'll just factor the above equation.
x² + 18x + 80
x² ⇒ x * x
80
can be:
1 x 80
2 x 40
4 x 20
5 x 16
8 x 10 Correct pair
(x+8)(x+10)
x(x+10) +8(x+10) ⇒ x² + 10x + 8x + 80 = x² + 18x + 80
x+8 = 0
x = -8
x+10 = 0
x = -10
x = -8
(-8)² + 18(-8) + 80 = 0
64 - 144 + 80 = 0
144 - 144 = 0
0 = 0
(-10)² + 18(-10) + 80 = 0
100 - 180 + 80 = 0
180 - 180 = 0
0 = 0
I think the algebra tiles will not be a good tool to use to factor the quadratic equation because the equation is not a perfect square quadratic equation.

Answer:
√629 ≈ 25.08
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula is useful for this.
d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)
d = √((-12 -13)² +(6 -8)²) = √(625 +4) = √629 ≈ 25.08
The distance between the points is about 25.08 units.
Y intercept : (0,-15)
X intercept : (3,0)
Slope : (0 - (-15)) / (3-0) = 15 / 3 = 5
= (3/8) (16x + - 24)
=(3/8) (16x) +(3/8)(-24)
=6x - 9
