Answer: False
=============================================
Explanation:
I'll use x in place of p.
The original equation 10x^2-5x = -8 becomes 10x^2-5x+8 = 0 after moving everything to one side.
Compare this to ax^2+bx+c = 0
We have
Plug those three values into the discriminant formula below
d = b^2 - 4ac
d = (-5)^2 - 4(10)(8)
d = 25 - 40*8
d = 25 - 320
d = -295
The discriminant is negative, which means we have no real solutions. If your teacher has covered complex or imaginary numbers, then you would say that the quadratic has 2 complex roots. If your teacher hasn't covered this topic yet, then you'd simply say "no real solutions".
Either way, this quadratic doesn't have exactly one solution. That only occurs when d = 0. Therefore, the original statement is false.
Answer: 2.5 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Gallons of paint had = 6.25 gallons
Amount needed to paint room = 2/5 of the paint
Gallons of paint needed :
2/5 of 6.25
(2 * 6.25) / 5 gallons
= 12.5 / 5
= 2.5 gallons
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 -3 = -1 + 4 = 3
x = -4 OR x = 6
