Answer:
a) x1 = 6 and x2 = -2
b) -2
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
To find the roots of the quadratic equation, we can use the Bhaskara's formula:
Delta = b^2 - 4ac
Delta = (-4)^2 - 4*1*(-12) = 64
sqrt(Delta) = 8
x1 = (-b + sqrt(Delta)) / 2a
x1 = (4 + 8) / 2
x1 = 6
x2 = (-b - sqrt(Delta)) / 2a
x2 = (4 - 8) / 2
x2 = -2
b)
The roots are 6 and -2, so the smaller root is -2
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Here m = - 3 , thus
y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (7, 8) into the partial equation
8 = - 21 + c ⇒ c = 8 + 21 = 29
y = - 3x + 29 → A
