Explain why a quadratic equation with a positive discriminant has two real solutions, a quadratic equation with a negative discriminant has no real solution, and a quadratic equation with a discriminant of zero has one real solution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A quadratic equation can be written as:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0.

where a, b and c are real numbers.

The solutions of this equation can be found by the equation:

[tex]x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}[/tex]

Where the determinant is D = b^2 - 4*a*c.

Now, if D>0

we have the square root of a positive number, which will be equal to a real number.

√D = R

then the solutions are:

[tex]x = \frac{-b +- R }{2*a}[/tex]

Where each sign of R is a different solution for the equation.

If D< 0, we have the square root of a negative number, then we have a complex component:

√D = i*R

[tex]x = \frac{-b +- C*i }{2*a}[/tex]

We have two complex solutions.

If D = 0

√0 = 0

then:

[tex]x = \frac{-b +- 0}{2*a} = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]

We have only one real solution (or two equal solutions, depending on how you see it)

2) What are the solutions to the equation?

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

Given

- 2x = x² - 6 ( subtract x² from both sides )

- x² - 2x = - 6 ( multiply through by - 1 )

x² + 2x = 6

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(1)x + 1 = 6 + 1

(x + 1)² = 7

(2)

Take the square root of both sides

x + 1 = ± [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex] ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x = - 1 ± [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex]

Solutions are x = - 1 - [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex] , x = - 1 + [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex]

A retailer sold a vacuum cleaner for 40% below its marked price. The sale price was 50% above the cost to the retailer. What is the ration of marked price to cost?

Answers

Answer:

10 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a retailer sold a vacuum cleaner for 40% below its marked price.

Let the marked price = P

40% below = (100 - 40)P/100

Sale price = 60P/100

Sale price = 0.6P

The sale price was 50% above the cost to the retailer.

That is, cost price = (100 + 50)0.6P/100

Cost price = (150)0.6P/100

Cost price = 1.5 × 0.6P

Cost price = 0.9P

What is the ratio of marked price to cost?

The ratio will be = P/0.9P

Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10

Ratio = 10 : 9

Kirima is building a wall for her snow fort. She first makes a firm base out of snow, and then piles uniformly sized blocks of snow in a brick-like pattern. She has a maximum height for this wall in mind, and she wants to figure out how many blocks can be stacked vertically in her wall while remaining below this maximum. So, she constructs the expression 0.4x + 0.6 to measure the height of her wall, where all constants represent measurements in meters. Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply. 0.4 represents the height of the wall. 0.4 represents the height of the base. 0.4 represents the height of each block. 0.6 represents the height of the wall. 0.6 represents the height of the base. 0.6 represents the height of each block.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

0.4 represents the height of each block

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given are;

Kirima first builds a firm base of a given height

Kirima is building her wall using uniformly sized bricks

the height of the wall she is building depends on the number of blocks stacked to form the wall

Therefore, variable that depends on other variable, which is the dependent variable, y, is the height of the wall

The independent, which determines the value of the dependent variable is the number of blocks added, x

The gradient of the equation is the height of each block = 0.4

The y-intercept is the starting value, which is the firm base of dimension, 0.6

Therefore, 0.4 represents the height of each block.

Round 7.21 to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

            7.21 ≈ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are rounding to the whole number you are rounding to ones so you need to look at the tenth digit:

2<5 so 7 stays the same  (rounding down)

7.21 ≈ 7

The nearest whole number for the given number is 7.

What is rounding off?

To change a number into an approximation having fewer significant digits. For example :-

Round off 15.4 to 15, round off 15.51 to 15.5 or to 16, round off 0.499 to 0, and round off 970,000 to 1 million.

Given is a number 7.21,

We know that,  if the digit is less than 5, round down and if the digit is 5 or more than 5, round up.

Since, numbers after the decimal is not greater than 5, therefore, it will not change and will remain 7.

Hence, the required whole number is 7.

Triangle ABC is a right triangle, angle B is the right angle, angle A is

What is the measurement of angle A?
ОООО

42°
45°
48°

Answers

The answer is 42 degrees.

A triangle has to equal 180 degrees in total. Because you know it is a right triangle and b is the right angle you make angle a plus c equal 90. You add together 8x and 9x to get 17x and add the 2 and 3 to get 5. You have to solve for x so you subtract 5 from both sides to get 17x = 85. To get x alone you divide both sides by 17 giving you x=5. Now that you have x you plug it into to the equation for angle a. This gives you 8(5)+2 which equals 42.

8x+2+9x+3=90
17x+5=90
17x=85
X=5

8(5)+2=

What is the probability of choosing a number 1 - 10 that is
greater than 5 or even?

Answers

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first, our set of choices is 10. This means that there are 10 choices.

We want a number that is greater than 5 or even. Thus, let's mark down all of our choices.

Numbers greater than 5 are:

6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

Even numbers are:

2, 4, 6, 8, 10.

However, we already counted 6, 8, and 10 previously, so we'll ignore that.

All in all, the following numbers will satisfy our requirements:

2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

This is 7 out of 10 numbers.

what is the answer h+6\5=2

Answers

Answer:

h = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

h + (6/5) = 2

h = 2 - (6/5)

h = (10/5) - (6/5)

h = (10-6)/5

h = 4/5

Check:

(4/5) + (6/5) = 2

10/5 = 2

The solution to the equation h + 6/5 = 2 is h = 4/5.

Given is an equation h + 6/5 = 2, we need to solve for h,

To solve the equation h + 6/5 = 2, we need to isolate the variable h on one side of the equation.

Let's begin by subtracting 6/5 from both sides of the equation to get rid of the term on the left side:

h + 6/5 - 6/5 = 2 - 6/5

Simplifying the equation:

h + (6/5 - 6/5) = 2 - 6/5

The term (6/5 - 6/5) is equal to 0, so we have:

h + 0 = 2 - 6/5

Simplifying further:

h = 2 - 6/5

To combine the fractions on the right side, we need a common denominator, which in this case is 5.

We can convert the whole number 2 into a fraction with a denominator of 5:

h = (2 x 5)/5 - 6/5

This becomes:

h = 10/5 - 6/5

Now we can subtract the fractions:

h = (10 - 6)/5

Simplifying:

h = 4/5

Therefore, the solution to the equation h + 6/5 = 2 is h = 4/5.
