See explanation below.
Explanation:
The 'difference between roots and factors of an equation' is not a straightforward question. Let's define both to establish the link between the two..
Assume we have some function of a single variable
x
;
we'll call this
f
(
x
)
Then we can form an equation:
f
(
x
)
=
0
Then the "roots" of this equation are all the values of
x
that satisfy that equation. Remember that these values may be real and/or imaginary.
Now, up to this point we have not assumed anything about
f
x
)
. To consider factors, we now need to assume that
f
(
x
)
=
g
(
x
)
⋅
h
(
x
)
.
That is that
f
(
x
)
factorises into some functions
g
(
x
)
×
h
(
x
)
If we recall our equation:
f
(
x
)
=
0
Then we can now say that either
g
(
x
)
=
0
or
h
(
x
)
=
0
.. and thus show the link between the roots and factors of an equation.
[NB: A simple example of these general principles would be where
f
(
x
)
is a quadratic function that factorises into two linear factors.
(-8 + 0 / 2) (7 + 1 / 2)
(-8/2) (8/2)
(-4) (4)
Midpoint = (-4,4) [Answer]
A line with undefined slope has an equation x=a.
So, for a line that passes through the point (x,y) = (-3,5) ,
has the equation x= - 3.
Y=Mx +b
B is 0 because that’s where the graph intercepts the y axis.
M is found by picking any two points and finding the rise and run because m is equal rise/run
Points of choice: (-2,4) and (2,-4)
=2−1/2−1 = -8/4
m is equal -2
Y= -2X
Look at the picture below to differentiate between positive and negative slopes.
