A discriminant test is one that tells whether a formula has one, two or no solutions.

The equation represents a parabola because the discriminant of a parabola has either x or y squared and not the both.

<h3>What is a discriminant test?</h3>

A discriminant test is a test that tells whether there are one, two or no solutions for a formula.

The discriminant is the part of the quadratic formula underneath the square root symbol: b²-4ac.

The discriminant of a quadratic equation is given as ax2 + bx + c = 0

A discriminant is said to be a parabola either x or y is squared and not both unlike that of an eclipse and a hyperbola.

With the given equation,  x^2 − 4xy + 3x + 25y − 6 = 0, only x is squared and not both x and y.

Thus, the equation represents a parabola because the discriminant of a parabola has either x or y squared and not the both.

Answer:

(X,Y)(18,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 30

2x + 4y = 84

___________

2x+2y=60

2x+4y=84

_________

-2y=-24/-2y

y=12

2x+4(12)=84

2x+48=84

2x=84-48

2x/2=36/2

X=18

a rectangle is dilated using a scale factor of 6. The image us then dilated using a scale factor 1/3.What scale facotr could you
Mandarinka [93]
You multiply by 2 because if you take any number let's say 15, 15x 6 is 90 1/3 of 90 is 30 and 15 is half of thirty. this works with all numbers so the answer is dilate by a scale factor of 2.
