1 = 4
2 = -20
3 = 100
4 = -500
5 = 2500
6 = - 12,500
7 = 62, 500
8 = - 312, 500
9 = 1,562,500

Hope this helped☺☺

Step-by-step explanation:

y=0.860x17+3.302

foot is 17.992 inches long

Unfortunately, I don't have access to your data so i can't give a solid answer. However, I can tell you that if your coefficeint (number before x) is greater than 0.86, you have a greater rate of change. If its smaller, its a lower rate of change.

What is the discriminant of f(x)=2x^2+8x+16 <br>and the number and type of roots

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

2 imaginary roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminate is the portion of the quadratic equation under the square root

D = b^2 - 4ac

D = 8^2 - 4(2)(16)

D = 64 - 128

D = -64

Since the discriminate is negative the square root will be imaginary

and there will be 2 of them

2 imaginary roots

$x-the\ number\\\\x^2-(5+3x)=0\\\\x^2-5-3x=0\\\\x^2-3x-5=0$

$Use\ the\ quadratic\ formula:\\a^2x+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\if\ \Delta > 0\ then\ x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\ and\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\if\ \Delta=0\ then\ x_0=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\\\\if\ \Delta < 0\ then\ no\ solution$

$x^2-3x-5=0\\\\a=1;\ b=-3;\ c=-5\\\\\Delta=(-3)^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-5)+3+20=29 \ \textgreater \ 0\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{29}\\\\x_1=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2} \ \textless \ 0\\\\x_2=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2} \ \textgreater \ 0$

$Answer:\ \boxed{x=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2}}$
