What are the roots of 5x^2=60

{±2√3}

Step-by-step explanation: Since only one term contains an x in this problem, we can simply get the x by itself by dividing both sides by 5 and then square rooting both sides to get x = ±√12

Remember to use plus or minus when

square rooting both sides of an equation.

Now, √12 breaks down to 2√3 so our

final answer is {±2√3}.

If the variable only appears in one of the terms in the equation,

you can solve it by simply isolating the variable.

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
