Answer:
2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of VW is just the distance between the two coordinates. You could use the distance formula, or an easier and faster way would be to recognize that since both points have the same y-coordinate, the distance between them will just be the distance of the x-coordinates. The absolute value of -4 and -2 is 2, so the length of VW is 2 units.
Hope this helped! ;)
If you follow PEMDAS your answer would be 3.6.
A bit confusing for me to be able to answer this for you… any way you can simplify your question?
The x intrercepts is where the function crosses the x axis; In other words, it is where the output of the function is 0.
In a quadratic, you can start by factoring, if it’s unable to be factored then use the quadratic formula. Also, it is good to use the discriminate.
D= Discrimminate
D>0 2 real solutions
D=0 1 real solution
D<0 2 imaginary solutions.
The discrimminate is the equation/expression under the radical of the quadratic formula. With this formula, it’s not factorable. Using the discriminate it is also seen, as you’ll get a negative in the square root. This is imagenary because you cannot take the root of a negative value, which is why “i” is used to represent the square root of negative one.
