Answer:

x = - 5, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 15) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 2)

The factors are + 5 and - 3 , since

5 × - 3 = - 15 and 5 - 3 = + 2, so

x² + 2x - 15 = 0

(x + 5)(x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

What is the slope of (-1,6) and (2,3)?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

For a line joining two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), it's slope is given as:

\boxed{ \mathsf{slope =  \frac{ y_{2} -y  _{1}}{ x_{2} - x _{1}} }}

Here, the two points are (-1, 6) and (2, 3) in place of (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

Solving for slope:

\implies \mathsf{ \frac{3 - 6}{2 - ( -1 )} }

\implies \mathsf{ \frac{ - 3}{2  + 1 } }

\implies \mathsf{ \frac{ - 3}{3 } }

\implies \mathsf{  - 1 }

Hence, the slope of the line joining the given points is <u>-1.</u>
