The discriminant is b^2 -4ac
a = 1
b = -2
c = 4
discriminant = 4 -4 * 1 * 4 =
4 -16 =
-12
I get MINUS 12 as the answer but that isn't one of the choices.
Answer:
or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Now we know it's a dilation. So we can use any two points. I chose V and V'.
V: (3,6)
V': (2,4)
So how we get from 6 to 4?

You can tell it's 1.5 aswell because 4 times 1 is 4 and 4 times 0.5 is 2. Add them to get 6.
Therefore, the dilation factor is 1.5.
Answer:
a = 22
b = 31
c = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum is the same in each row, column, and diagonal.
One of the diagonals is already complete. The sum is:
16 + 25 + 34 = 75
So the first row adds up to 75:
a + 37 + 16 = 75
a = 22
The second row adds up to 75:
19 + 25 + b = 75
b = 31
And the third row adds up to 75:
34 + c + 28 = 75
c = 13
We can check our answer by finding the sum of each column and the other diagonal.
22 + 19 + 34 = 75
37 + 25 + 13 = 75
16 + 31 + 28 = 75
22 + 25 + 28 = 75
33.3% is the answer, I think
20/60 ---> 1/3, covert this to a percentage and it equals 33.3%
