Answer: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is $b^2-4ac$

in the equation:

$-x^2+4x-2$

A = -1, B = 4, C = -2

plug into equation

$4^2-4(-1)(-2)$

$16-8$

⇒ $8$

leva [86]

Answer:

Rational Function

Step-by-step explanation:

Gives the function:

$f(x) = \frac{x-2}{3x-2x^2}$

It has the following,

Domain

x∈ $\mathbb{R}$ : $x\neq 0, x\neq 3/2$

Range

$f \in \mathbb{R} : f \leq -1, f \geq -\frac{1}{9}$

End behaviour

As x $x \rightarrow \infty, y \rightarrow 0$

Horizontal and Vertical Asymptote

Vertical $x = 0, x=3/2$

Horizontal $y = 0$

x-intercept: (2,0)

y-intercept: none

Cassidy wrote the linear equation y=5x+4. Then she wrote the equation of the line that is parallel to y=5x+ and that passes thro

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The value of b is -42

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel equations have identical or equal slopes. Given the form of the equation; y=5x+b and the point it passes through (8,-2) we determine the unknown value b by substituting x with 8 and y with -2. We solve the equation; -2 =5(8)+b to obtain b = -42
