Substitute the values for a, b, and c into b2 – 4ac to determine the discriminant. Which quadratic equations will have two real

number solutions? (The related quadratic function will have two x-intercepts.) Check all that apply.
0 = 2x2 – 7x – 9
0 = x2 – 4x + 4
0 = 4x2 – 3x – 1
0 = x2 – 2x – 8
0 = 3x2 + 5x + 3

That is when b^2-4ac>0, that is when you have 2 real solutions

alright, so ax^2+bx+c=0

first one:
a=2, b=-7, c=-9
b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(2)(-9)=49+72>0, so this has 2 real solutions

2nd one
a=1, b=-4, c=4
b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(4)=16-16=0, so this has only 1 real number solution

3rd
a=4, b=-3, c=-1
b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(4)(-1)=9+16>0, so this has 2 real number solutions

4th
a=1, b=-2, c=-8
b^2-4ac=(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)=4+32>0, so this has 2 real number solutions

5th
a=3, b=5, c=3
b^2-4ac=(5)^2-4(3)(3)=25-36<0, this has no real soltuions


answer is 1st, 3rd, 4th
those are
<span>0 = 2x2 – 7x – 9
0 = 4x2 – 3x – 1
0 = x2 – 2x – 8</span>

Answer: 0=2x^2-7x-9\\0=4x^2-3x-1\\0=x^2-2x-8


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the standard quadratic equation is  ax^2+bx+c=0

Let's compare all the given equation to it and , find discriminant.

1. a=2, b= -7, c=-9

b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(2)(-9)=49+72>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(4)=16-16=0

So it has only 1 real number solution.

3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(4)(-1)=9+16=25>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8

b^2-4ac=(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)=4+32=36>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

5. a=3, b=5, c=3

b^2-4ac=(5)^2-4(3)(3)=25-36=-9

Thus it does not has real solutions.

Anna, Ivan and Elena are running for class president. On Thursday night Anna had 20% of the votes, Ivan had 35% of the votes and
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

28%

Step-by-step explanation:

On Thursday night Anna had 20% of the votes, Ivan had 35% of the votes and Elena had 45% of the votes. You can take the number of total votes on Thursday equal to 100, then Anna had 20 votes, Ivan had 35 votes and Elena had 45 votes.

Let x be the number of votes added on Friday. All of them favored Elena, then Elena in total had 45+x votes and the number of all votes became 100+x. In the end Anna had 16%, then

100+x - 100%,

20 - 16%.

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{100+x}{20}=\dfrac{100}{16},\\ \\16(100+x)=2000,\\ \\1600+16x=2000,\\ \\16x=400,\\ \\x=25.

Find the percent of the voters that chose Ivan:

125 - 100%,

35 - y%.

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{125}{35}=\dfrac{100}{y},\\ \\125y=35\cdot 100,\\ \\y=\dfrac{35\cdot 100}{125}=\dfrac{35\cdot 4}{5}=7\cdot 4=28\%.
