Since the value of the discriminant (-19) < 0, no real solution(s)/root(s) exist for the equation. Thus, we can choose the first option:

"Zero, because the discriminant is negative".

A quadratic equation is a polynomial of degree 2, in a single variable x.

The standard form of a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0.

The quadratic formula is used to find the solution(s)/root(s) of this equation.

The quadratic formula is:

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

In this formula, b^2-4ac is called the discriminant (D).

The solution(s)/root(s) of the equation, depends on this discriminant value as follows:

  • When D > 0, the roots of the equation are real and distinct.
  • When D = 0, the roots of the equation are real and equal.
  • When D < 0, then no real roots exist.

In the question, we are given that the simplest form of Quincy's equation in the radical form was,

x = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{-19} }{2}.

Comparing this to the quadratic formula,

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

we get the discriminant (D) = -19.

Since the value of the discriminant (-19) < 0, no real solution(s)/root(s) exist for the equation. Thus, we can choose the <u>first option</u>:

"Zero, because the discriminant is negative".

What is the measure of the larger angle in this degree?​
Pie
Answer:

A straight line is equivalent to 180 degrees with that in mind,

(2.4x)+(9.6x)=180
2.4x+9.6x=180
12x=180
12x/12=180/12
x=15

Now to find the measurement of the larger angle,

9.6*15=144
Just in case you need it
180-144=36
Which is your smaller measurement.

Determine the volume in litres of 14kg of petrol of density 700kg/m³​
valkas [14]

Answer:

p =  \frac{m}{v}

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is the ratio of an object's mass to its volume, and it measures how compact an object is. The density of an object, p, is directly proportional to its mass, m, and inversely proportional to its volume, V:

p =  \frac{m}{v}
