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)
 
        
             
        
        
        
You answer is: 17
Or otherwise B. is your correct answer.
(9 - 23) = -(14)
| 47 - 16| = 31
31 + (-14) = 17
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
- 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the slope-intercept form to figure out our slope.
y = mx + b
Get y alone:
x + 2y = -8
2y = -x - 8
y = -x/2 - 4
Since m is the slope in y = mx + b, we can see that -1/2 is in the place of m, therefore our slope is -1/2
