Question:

1 answer:

4 0

We know that 24 is 160% more than some recommended number, let's call it "x." This means 1.6 times the recommended number equals 24. Therefore, all we need to do is solve for x.

$1.6x=24$

$x=\frac{24}{1.6}$

Make sense?

Answer:

The whole triangle is 180° , and means + in math

15-x + 2x= 180

-x+2x=180-15

-x+2x=165

2x=165

2x/2=165+/2

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

hoa [83]

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.
