Check the picture below.
notice, this line, in black, is really just a vertical line, namely x = -4.
a perpendicular line to that, like the red line there, will be a horizontal line y = [some number].
recall a vertical line always has an <u>undefined</u> slope, whilst a horizontal line always has a slope of 0.
Answer:
0; 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) if to substitute x=1 into the given equation, it is possible to calculate the value of 'm':
1-m²-m+1=0; ⇔ m²+m-2=0; ⇒ m₁=-2; m₂=1;
2) if m=-2 and m=1, then the initial equation is:
x²-4x+3=0 or x²-x=0;
3) according to the item 3), the 2d root is:
x₂=3 or x₂=0.
Answer
C. (5/2, -1/3)
Step by step explanation
Here we use the rational root theorem.
The possible roots are
+1, +3, +5, +15, +1/2, +3/2, +5/2, +15/2, +1/3, +5/3, +1/6 and +5/6
We have to use the synthetic division to find the correct root of this function.
Here the roots are 5/2 and -1/3
Others are not roots of this function.
Let's check x = 5/2 with synthetic division.
5/2) 6 -13 13 -39 -15
- 15 5 45 15
--------------------------
6 2 18 6 0
Similarly x = -1/3 is also root of this function.
Answer: C. (5/2, -1/3)
