Answer:
E. 0
Step-by-step explanation:
There isn't any guarantee that there are <em>any </em>people that have their birthdays in the same month based on what you're given, so your answer would be 0.
Any number over its self. for example 1,999/1,999
Answer:
-4 ± 2√6
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewritten in standard quadratic form, x^2+8x-2=18 becomes x^2 + 8x - 20 = 0.
Here the quadratic coefficients are a = 1, b = 8 and c = -20 and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 8^2 - 4(1)(-20), or 96.
Because the discriminant is positive, we know that this quadratic has two different real roots. These roots are:
-b ± √(b² - 4ac)
x = -------------------------
2a
which in this case comes out to:
-8 ± √96 -8 ± 4√6
x = ------------------ = ------------------- = -4 ± 2√6
2 2
