The discriminant of a quadratic equation is:
Plug in the values.
Since the discriminant is negative, you can tell that the quadratic has no real solutions.
Hope that helped!

If the population of the animals decreases by 10% every year. This means that the population for the next year is 90% of that in the previous. The multiplier for the rate of exponential decay is therefore 0.90. The answer is letter B.
That’s the work and the answers
Answer:
y=2x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form = y=mx+b
Where m=slope and b= y intercept
Reminder: the y intercept is where x=0
Looking at the graph, the y intercept is given as (0,-2)
There are also two points given (0, -2) and (2,2)
Reminder: to find the slope, divide the changes in y by the changes in x or substitute the numbers into this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1
2-(-2)/2-0=4/2
m=2
Now that we have the slope and y intercept, sbstitute into the equation y=mx+b:
y=2x-2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3c + 5w = 16
6c + 2w = 22
-6c - 10w = -32
6c + 2w = 22
-8w = -10
w = 10/8 = 5/4 = $1.25 per lb
3c + 5(1.25) = 16
3c + 6.25 = 16
3c = 9.75
c = $3.25 per lb
