The given quadratic expression; 5b² -6b -2 is prime because the discriminant is not a perfect square.

<h3>What is the discriminant of the expression?</h3>

According to the task content; it is required to identify if the expression is prime.

On this note, it follows that the discriminant of the expression can be evaluated as follows;

= 36 -(4× 5 × -2)

= 76.

Hence, the expression is prime since 76 is not a perfect square.

Help me find the answerr

notka56 [123]

Answer:

m∠3 = 24°

Step-by-step explanation:

By the theorem,

"Intercepted arc measures the double of the inscribed angle formed by two chords meeting at one point of the circle."

In the given picture,

∠3 is the inscribed angle subtended by the arc ED and is the intercepted arc.

Therefore, m∠3 = $\frac{1}{2}m(\text{arc}ED)$

m∠3 = $\frac{1}{2}(48)$

= 24°

Measure of angle 3 is 24 degrees.

A sequence is defined by the recursive formula f(n + 1) = 1.5f(n). Which sequence could be generated using the formula? –12, –18

Softa [21]

Answer:

The sequence -12 , -18 , -27 , ............ is generated using the formula ⇒ 1st sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive formula of the sequence is f(n + 1) = 1.5 f(n)

That means there is a constant ratio 1.5 between each two consecutive terms

In sequence -12 , -18 , -27 , ............

The first term is -12

The formula is f(n + 1) = 1.5 f(n)

Use the first term where n = 1 to find the 2nd term

∵ f(1) = -12

- Substitute n by 1 in the given formula

∵ f(1 + 1) = 1.5 f(1)

∴ f(2) = 1.5(-12)

∴ f(2) = -18

Use the second term where n = 2 to find the 3rd term

∵ f(2) = -18

- Substitute n by 2 in the given formula

∵ f(2 + 1) = 1.5 f(2)

∴ f(3) = 1.5(-18)

∴ f(3) = -27

∴ The sequence -12 , -18 , -27 , ............ is generated using the formula
