18 / 1 = x / 15......18 miles to 1 gallon = x miles to 15 gallon
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (18)(15)
x = 270 miles
you need help with sum

So discriminant gives us 3 possibilites connected with result of the equation b^2-4ac. If it is bigger than zero, there are 2 solutions, if answer is exactly 0, then there is one answer and if the number is lower than 0, there are no solutions.
Discriminant of your quadratic equation is (-4)^2-4*1*5=16-20=-4, so there are no solutions.
Answer: 3j-6k+4
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to distribute the 3 to the j and the -2k since they are both in the parentheses. So it would look like (3*j) +(-2k*3)+4 and if you simplify that it is 3j-2k+4. After that there are no like terms so that is your answer.
