Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
2×-y=6
subtract the 2x
-y=-2×+6
divided by negative 1 on both sides
y=2×-6
First solve for the slope, m using the two points given. It doesn't matter which point you choose as point 1 or 2 as long as you're consistent.
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
point 1: (–6.4, –2.6)
point 2: (5.2, 9)
m = (9 - -2.6)/(5.2 - -6.4)
m = (9 + 2.6)/(5.2 + 6.4)
m = 11.6/11.6
m = 1
put the newly found slope into the linear equation for m
y = (1)x + b
y = x + b
Now solve for the y-intercept, b
by putting one of the given points
9 = 5.2 + b
b = 9 - 5.2
b = 3.8
final equation:
y = x + 3.8
Answer:
x = 1 ±2sqrt(5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2-4x-9=29
Add 9 to each each side
2x^2-4x-9+9=29+9
2x^2-4x=38
Divide by 2
2/2x^2-4/2x=38/8
x^2 -2x =19
Complete the square
x^2 -2x + (-2/2)^2 = 19 +(-2/2)^2
x^2 -2x +1 = 19+1
(x-1)^1=2 = 20
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-1)^2) = ±sqrt(20)
x-1 = ±sqrt(20)
Add 1 to each side
x-1+1 = 1 ±sqrt(20)
x = 1 ±sqrt(20)
Simplifying the square root of 20
x = 1 ±sqrt(4)sqrt(5)
x = 1 ±2sqrt(5)
This is a question that involves multiplication. If 1 baseball weighs 5 ounces, and you're trying to find out how many 6 weigh, multiply 5x6. The answer is 30. Hope this helps.
