Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

4/7 of x

(4/7) × x

4x/7

As stated in the question:

x=4x/7+18

=x-4x/7=18

=(7x-4x)/7=18

=3x/7=18

3x= 18×17

3x= 126

x=126/3

x=42

Find the discriminant and describe the roots for this equation x^2+3x+8=0
Alla [95]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic equation is  b² - 4ac.

Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = 8, and so the value of the discriminant is:

3² - 4(1)(8) = 9 - 32 = -23

The discriminant is -23 in this case.

A negative discriminant indicates that the roots will be complex.
