3x -2y=8
Y= 3/2 x- 4
Hence slope is 3/2
The line d (for example) is parallel to this line the slope of d = slope of this line = 3\2
Then equation of d : y =3/2 x - b
The point (-4,6) belongs to d
Y - 6 = 3/2 (x +4)
Y= 3/2 x + 6 +6
Y= 3/2x +12
Then the equation is : Y= 3/2x +12
Simplifying
b2 + -4b + -14 = 0
Reorder the terms:
-14 + -4b + b2 = 0
Solving
-14 + -4b + b2 = 0
Solving for variable 'b'.
Begin completing the square.
Move the constant term to the right:
Add '14' to each side of the equation.
-14 + -4b + 14 + b2 = 0 + 14
Reorder the terms:
-14 + 14 + -4b + b2 = 0 + 14
Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0
0 + -4b + b2 = 0 + 14
-4b + b2 = 0 + 14
Combine like terms: 0 + 14 = 14
-4b + b2 = 14
The b term is -4b. Take half its coefficient (-2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4b + 4 + b2 = 14 + 4
Reorder the terms:
4 + -4b + b2 = 14 + 4
Combine like terms: 14 + 4 = 18
4 + -4b + b2 = 18
Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + -2)(b + -2) = 18
Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.242640687
Break this problem into two subproblems by setting
(b + -2) equal to 4.242640687 and -4.242640687. b + -2 = 4.242640687
Simplifying
b + -2 = 4.242640687
Reorder the terms:
-2 + b = 4.242640687
Solving
-2 + b = 4.242640687
Solving for variable 'b'.
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + b = 4.242640687 + 2
Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + b = 4.242640687 + 2
b = 4.242640687 + 2
Combine like terms: 4.242640687 + 2 = 6.242640687
b = 6.242640687
Simplifying
B = 6.242640687
Subproblem 2
b + -2 = -4.242640687
Simplifying
b + -2 = -4.242640687
Reorder the terms:
-2 + b = -4.242640687
Solving
-2 + b = -4.242640687
Solving for variable 'b'.
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 2 + b = -4.242640687 + 2
Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + b = -4.242640687 + 2
b = -4.242640687 + 2
Combine like terms: -4.242640687 + 2 = -2.242640687
b = -2.242640687
Simplifying
b = -2.242640687
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Congruent triangles mean they have the same side lengths, so the equation here is x^2-7=4x-2. Then, solve the quadratic equation:
x^2-7=4x-2
x^2-4x-5=0
(x-5)(x+1)=0
x=5,-1
Since a side of a triangle can't be negative, the answer is 5.
