(\stackrel{x_1}{20}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-2}-\stackrel{y1}{(-7)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{10}-\underset{x_1}{20}}}\implies \cfrac{-2+7}{-10}\implies -\cfrac{1}{2}

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-7)}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{1}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{20}) \\\\\\ y+7=-\cfrac{1}{2}x+10\implies y=-\cfrac{1}{2}x+3

Some of the steps in the derivation of the quadratic formula are shown. Step 4: StartFraction negative 4 a c + b squared Over 4
s344n2d4d5 [400]

The reason why we used plus or minus when taking the square root is because; The square root of terms separated by addition and subtraction cannot be calculated individually.

<h3>How to use the quadratic formula?</h3>

The general formula for a quadratic equation is;

ax² + bx + c = 0

Now, the steps to derive quadratic formula to find the roots of this equation are as follows;

Step 1; Divide both sides of the equation by a to get;

x² + (b/a)x + c/a = 0

Step 2; Transpose the quantity c/a to the right side of the equation to get; x² + (b/a)x =  -c/a

Step 3; Complete the square by adding b²/4a² to both sides of the equation to get; x² + (b/a)x + b²/4a² =  -c/a + b²/4a²

Step 4; Factor the left side and combine the right side to get;

(x + (b/2a))² = (b² - 4ac)/(4a²)

Step 5:  Extract the square-root of both sides of the equation to get;

x + (b/2a) = ±(√(b² - 4ac))/2a

The reason why we used plus or minus when taking the square root is because The square root of terms separated by addition and subtraction cannot be calculated individually.
