Answer:
√(p²-4q)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Quadratic Formula, we can say that
x = ( -p ± √(p²-4(1)(q))) / 2(1) with the 1 representing the coefficient of x². Simplifying, we get
x = ( -p ± √(p²-4q)) / 2
The roots of the function are therefore at
x = ( -p + √(p²-4q)) / 2 and x = ( -p - √(p²-4q)) / 2. The difference of the roots is thus
( -p + √(p²-4q)) / 2 - ( ( -p - √(p²-4q)) / 2)
= 0 + 2 √(p²-4q)/2
= √(p²-4q)
The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, 3/5. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(3/5) = -5/3.
The point-slope form of the equation for a line of slope m through point (h, k) can be written ...
... y = m(x -h) +k
For your point and the slope found above, this becomes
... y = (-5/3)(x -15) -5
When x=0, this is
... y = (-5/3)(-15) -5 = 20
The y-intercept is 20.
Answer:
392
Step-by-step explanation:
3 rectangular faces
7 x 16 = 112
7 x 16 = 112
7 x 16 = 112
2 triangular faces
1/2 x 7 x 8 = 28
1/2 x 7 x 8 = 28
Total surface area:
112 + 112 + 112 + 28 + 28 = 392
