Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation with variable
Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons:



For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number.

First, we need to compute the discriminant : .

Discriminant d=16 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: .




Quadratic expression can be factored:

Again, the answer is: 3, -1. Here's your graph:

Solve:
We'll use substitution. After moving 1*y to the right, we get:
, or . Substitute that
into another equation:
and simplify: So, we know that y=1. Since , x=1.

Answer: .

Solved by pluggable solver: DESCRIBE a linear EQUATION: slope, intercepts, etc
Equation describes a sloping line. For any
equation ax+by+c = 0, slope is .
  • X intercept is found by setting y to 0: ax+by=c becomes ax=c. that means that x = c/a. 8/4 = 2.
  • Y intercept is found by setting x to 0: the equation becomes by=c, and therefore y = c/b. Y intercept is 8/2 = 4.
  • Slope is -4/2 = -2.
  • Equation in slope-intercept form: y=-2*x+4.
