Two ways:
1) guess factors(trial and error)
2) use quadratic formula.
If you use this method then a = -3, b = -6 and c = -1
x = -b +/- [sqrt(b^2 -4ac)/2a]
substituting a, b, and c into our equation we get:
x = - (-6)+/- [sqrt ((-6)^2) - 4(-3)(-1))/2 (-3)]
x = + 6 +/- [sqrt (36 -4 (3)/-6)] if I didnt make a mistake in my signs
x = + 6 +/- [sqrt (36 -12)/-6)]
x = 6 +/- [sqrt (24)/-6] but sqrt 6 x sqrt of 4 = sqrt 24 hence
x = 6 +/- [ sqrt 6 x sqrt 4 /-6] that is:
x = 6 +/- [sqrt 6 x 2 /-6 ]
so x = 6 + [sqrt 6 x 2/-6] and x = 6 - [sqrt 6 x 2/-6]

M=_1
Y=-1X+-7
Hi there! The answer is -2.
We can find the slope of a formula by using the following formula:

x2 and y2 don't mean squared, but the x and y coordinate of our second point.
First we need to find two points on the line. Ijn this particular case we have (-3, 3) and (1, -5). Now we can fill in the formula.

Therefore, the third answer is correct.
~ Hope this helps you!
F would be 1. G would be 4. E would be negative 3
