The discriminant of a quadratic equation is a parameter that is used to determine the nature of the roots of the equation. The discriminant can be determined by b2- 4ac. In this case, upon substitution, 25- 4*2*7 = -31 in which the roots are negative and iimaginary.

What is the fraction 2-5 2 on top and 5 on bottom ) equivalent to?
Andrei [34K]

To get to simplest form find the greatest common factor, or the gcf, of both numbers. To do that find all of the factors and find the one with the highest value both numbers share. So 30 would have factors of 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30, and 42 would have the factors of 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42. Both numbers share the factors of 1, 2, 3, and 6 so the gcf is 6. Now divide both numbers by six to get your answer.
