The y-intercept is the starting point. Since the temperature started at -7, we know that b in y = mx + b has to be -7. m is the slope which in our case is 3 because the temperature is changing every hour. So, because the temperature is going up, it's +3. Our equation should be y = 3x - 7.
X^2+3x=24, halve the linear coefficient, square it, and add it to both sides
In this case (3/2)^2=2.25
x^2+3x+2.25=26.25 now the left side is a perfect square...
(x+1.5)^2=26.25 take the square root of both sides
x+1.5=±√26.25 subtract 1.5 from both sides
x=-1.5±√26.25
x=-1.5-√26.25 and -1.5+√26.25
x≈ -6.62 and 3.62
I thinks it’s B because up it’s y and down its -y and right is X and left is -X
When it comes to deductive reasoning, it is used to reach a logical solution. You start out with the general statement, or hypothesis, and examine all the possibilities so you can reach the final conclusion.
Inductive reasoning is completely opposite - you focus on specific observations, and then make broad generalizations.
