The equation -2y = 5x + 8 represents a line.

Answer:

Lines parallel to the given equation will have a slope of -⁵/2 and lines perpendicular to the given line will have a slope of ⅖.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of a line, -2y = 5x + 8, first rewrite the equation in the slope-intercept form, before determining the slope of the lines that will be parallel to it, and slope of lines that will be perpendicular to it.

-2y = 5x + 8

Divide both sides by -2

y = 5x/-2 + 8/2

y = -⁵/2x + 4

The slope of the line of this equation is -⁵/2.

Linea that will be parallel to the given equation will have the same slope, while all lines that will be perpendicular to it will be a negative reciprocal of the slope of the equation.

Therefore:

Lines parallel to the given equation will have a slope of -⁵/2 and lines perpendicular to the given line will have a slope of ⅖.

Find all the zeroes of the equation. x4 – 6x2 – 7x – 6 = 0
NeX [460]

Answer:

-2, 3,  -0.5 + 0.866i,   -0.5 - 0.866i.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the last term is -6 , +/- 2 , +/- 3 are possible zeroes.

Try 2:-

(2)^4 - 6(2)^2 - 7(2) - 6 = -28 so  2 is not a zero.

3:-

(3)^4 - 6(3)^2 - 7(3) - 6 = 0 so 3 is a zero.

(-2)^4 - 6(-2)^2 - 7(-2) - 6 =  0 so -2 is also a zero.

Divide the function by (x +2)(x - 3),  that is  x^2 - x - 6

gives  x^2 + x + 1

x^2 + x + 1

So we have x^2 + x + 1 = 0

x =  [-1 +/- √(1^1 - 4*1*1)] / 2

= -1 + √(-3) / 2 , - 1 - √(-3)  / 2.

= -0.5 + 0.866i, -0.5 - 0.866i

What to do if quadratic equation has a negative spuare root?
alex41 [277]

If the negative square root is found to be one of your solutions, then that is indicative of a pair of imaginary roots (the imaginary i). According to the conjugate rule, if you have one solution that is imaginary, you will have another but with the opposite sign. For example, if a solution to a quadratic is found to be 2 - i, then its conjugate, 2 + i is also a solution. They will ALWAYS go in pairs. Same thing with radical solutions. If one solution is found to be 3+\sqrt{5}

then 3-\sqrt{5} will also be a solution.
