Answer:

Percentage error is 0.0024 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial average distance between Earth and moon = 384467 km  

Distance measure by the scientist = 384476 km

Total variation in the distance calculation = 384476 – 384467 = 9 km.

Now we can find the percentage by dividing the variation in distance from the initial measurement and then multiply with hundred.

Percentage error = ( 9 /  384467 ) × 100 = 0.0024 %

Use the discriminant to determine how many real number solutions exist for the quadratic equations -4j+3j-28=0
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
<span>the correct equation is
- 4j² + 3j - 28 =0

 ax² + bx + c,
 a = -4, b=3  c =- 28.
The discriminent D = b² - 4.a.cD = 3² - 4(-4)(-28)D = -439 
If D ≥ 0 there are either 2 roots or one double if = 0)if D< 0, there are no real roots (but 2 imaginary roots)Since D < 0, then there is no real roots
 The answer there is no real roots</span>
