Answer:

When slope and one point are known follow instructions on this page:

http://www.1728.org/distance.htm

Calculate "b" from this equation:

b = y -mx where "m" is the slope

We'll use the point given (-2, -1) for "x" and "y"

b = -1 -(8/7) * -2

b = -1 + 16/7

b = 9/7

then we enter "b" and the slope into this equation

y = 8/7x +9/7

y = 1.142857 x + 1.2857142857

Answer:

$x=\pm i\text{ or }x=\pm2i$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$x^4+5x^2+4=0$

Let's let u be equal to x². So:

$u^2+5u+4=0$

Factor:

$(u+1)(u+4)=0$

Zero Product Property:

$u+1=0\text{ or } u+4=0$

Subtract:

$u=-1\text{ or }u=-4$

Replace:

$x^2=-1\text{ or }x^2=-4$

Take square root:

$x=\pm\sqrt{-1}\text{ or }x=\pm\sqrt{-4$

Simplify:

$x=\pm i\text{ or }x=\pm2i$

What is the lcm for 7,14,16

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the least common multiple, we break the numbers down into prime factors

7 = 7

14 = 7*2

16 = 2*8 = 2*4*2 = 2*2*2*2

Then we take the largest number of times it appears in all the numbers

2 appears 4 times so we take take four 2's

7 appears 1 so we take one 7

LCM = 2*2*2*2*7

LCM = 112
