Anderson uses the discriminant to correctly find the number of real solutions of the quadratic equation one-halfx2 + 4x + 8 = 0.
Which explanation could Anderson provide? The equation has no real number solutions because the discriminant is 0.
The equation has one real number solution because the discriminant is 0.
The equation has no real number solutions because the discriminant is less than 0.
The equation has two real number solutions because the discriminant is greater than 0.
Answer: Tammy's sample may not be vaild because she surveyed the students only from her class and it is likely that other classes might not like the subject maths. She might get the accurate results by surveying a larger number of people in the school instead of just her class.
