Anderson could provide 0.5x2 + 4x + 8 = 0 has exactly one real root if the discriminant is 0,

<h3>What is quadratic equation?</h3>

Any equation that can be rewritten in standard form as where x represents an unknown, a, b, and c represent known numbers, and where a 0 is true is a quadratic equation. As there is no ax2 term when a = 0, the equation is linear rather than quadratic.

<h3>What is discriminant?</h3>

A polynomial's discriminant is a quantity that depends on the coefficients and enables for some root attributes to be inferred without actually computing them. It is actually a polynomial function of the original polynomial's coefficients.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

0.5x^2 + 4x + 8 = 0

The discriminant is computed utilizing:

d = b^2 - 4ac

Thus, we have:

d = 4^2 - 4 * 0.5 * 8

Evaluate

d = 0

The equation has only one real root since the discriminant is 0,

Given any two numbers which is greater the LCM of the numbers or the GCF of the number? Why?
Natali [406]
The LCM  is the greater.

The GCF  is a factor which  divides in to each number  so can never be equal to the greater number, whereas the LCM is   the greater of the 2 numbers or  a multiple of them

The population of a certain species of bird in a region after t years can be modeled by the function P(t)= 1620/1+1.15e^-0.042t
natka813 [3]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is  \frac{1620}{1+1.15e^{-0.042t}}

To find the maximum population, we need to set t towards infinity to get our answer.

So, we replace time with maximum (\infty). Let's check:

\frac{1620}{1+1.15e^{-0.042t}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+\frac{1.15}{e^{0.042t}}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+\frac{1.15}{e^{0.042(\infty)}}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+\frac{1.15}{\infty}}\\=\frac{1620}{1+0}\\=\frac{1620}{1}\\=1620

The population of birds approaches 1620 as t goes towards infinity. So we can say the max population of the species is 1620.

Correct answer is A

Ben rolls two number cubes. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers he rolls is less than 6
kotegsom [21]
The numbered cubes might be referring the dice. We know that there are 36 ways of dice will occur.
Take the unique list of the following pair for which the sum is less than 6, and these are
(1,1) (1,2) (1,3) (1,4) (2,1) (2,2) (2,3) (3,1) (3,2) (4,1)
Therefore there are 10 possible ways we could get.
In probability, it is a ratio of the successful outcomes over the total number of possible outcomes.
P = 10/36 = 5/18
