Solve the following quadratic. `x^{2}\ +\ 4x\ +\ 1\ =\ 6`

Mathematics
1 answer:
Flauer [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -5 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 6 from both sides to get x²+4x-5=0

2. Factor the quadratic equation. Find two numbers that have a sum of 4 and a product of (-5). The numbers 5 and (-1) add to 4 and multiply to get -5

3. The factored equation is (x+5)(x-1)=0

4. Set each factor to equal zero and solve for x.

x+5=0 ... x=-5

x-1=0 ... x=1

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, -9) and (5, 3)
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving from (-4, -9) to (5, 3), x (the 'run') increases by 9 from -4 to 5, and y (the 'rise') increases by 12 from -9 to +3.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting the two points is

m = rise / run = 12/9 = 4/3

It may help to think of the change in x (9) as the horizontal leg of a right triangle and the change in y (12) as the vertical leg.  Then  

m = (vertical leg length) / (horizontal leg length) = 12/9 = 4/3

Y+4<u><</u>9
subtract 4
y<u><</u>5
y is smaller than and equal to 5
so you shade from 5 to the negative end to infinity (to the left) and shade the 5 to show that it is included (attachment says A)







6 less than (-6) 2 times a number (2 time x) is greater than (>) 8 (8)

-6+2x>8
add 6
2x>14
divide 2
x>7
so
x is bigger than 7
shade from 7 to the positive end to infinity (to the right) and don't shade 7 but put a circle around it to show that it is not included (attachment says B )

I have included pictures of the number lines

Nataly [62]
Answer = $160

Using the formula 100+4n, we need to substitute 15 with n. Therefore making the formula, 100 + 4×15. 4×15 = 60. 60+100= $160.

-Hope it helps!

Need Help On This Problem PLZ :-)
anastassius [24]

Answer:

y = 9 + 19x

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation matching a set of data, you simply try a few values for x and see if by solving that side of the equation you get the value of y.  If you do, you found your equation.

You have a big advantage here... since you have the value of y when x = 0.

When x = 0, y = 9, that's a very important data to have to simplify your research.

Let's try the value of 0 for x in each of the given equations:

y = 18 + 10 (0) = 18  --- NO

y = 9 + 19 (0) = 9 --- YES!  We can confirm with another value of x:

y = 9 + 19 (1) = 28 --- YES! Confirmed!

y = 9 + 19x is your answer!
