Hello!
The discriminant of quadratic functions is: b² - 4ac. Since the equation is in standard form, which is Ax² + Bx + C = 0 , we can substitute those values into our discriminant and simplify.
The value of the discriminant will tell us how many solutions there are to the given quadratic equation.
A positive discriminant will have two real solutions.
A discriminant of zero will have one real solution.
A negative discriminant will no real solutions.
1. Substitute, a = 16, b = 8, c = 1.
8² - 4(16)(1)
64 - 4(16)(1)
64 - 64(1)
64 - 64
0
Since the discriminant is zero, the answer is choice A, double root, because since it is raised to the power of 2, it must has two roots, but in this case, both of the roots the same x-values.
Answer:
B. 0.694
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcome to the number of total outcome.
Given that the pain reliever is advertised as being 97% effective, for it to be effective in 12 independent trials
= (97%) ^ 12
= 0.693842361
The is approximately 0.694 to 3 decimal places
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
,
3(x+2)+11>20
minus 11 both sides
3(x+2)>9
divide both sides by 3
x+2>3
minus 2 both sides
x>1
