Make the denominators the same as the LCD
Simplify, now denominators are the same
join the denominators
simplify
Answer: 23/45
The value of b^2-4ac is known as the discriminant of a quadratic function, and can tell you how many roots exist of this function depending on what it is equal to.
Start by moving the -1 to the other side, as we need this function to equal zero.
2x^2 + 3x + 1 = 0
This is now the standard form ax^2 + bx + c = 0. Plug each value that corresponds into the discriminant equation.
b^2-4ac
(3)^2 - 4(2)(1)
9 - 8
1
The value of the discriminant is 1, meaning that two real roots exist for the function described.
Answer:
25% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original amount of books and subtract the new number of books
20 -15 = 5
Divide by the original amount of books
5/20 = .25
Multiply by 100%
25%
It is a decrease since the amount went down
25% decrease

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
eight less then the product of a number and 2
