<span> The quadratic formula says that any quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c, then
x=(-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac))/2a, and so because of the square root, theres obviously going to be no x-intercepts if b^2 - 4ac is negative, one x-intercept if its zero, or two if its positive. So to calculate the discriminant, which is whether it has an intercept, no intercepts or two intercepts is:
∆=b^2 - 4ac, where delta, the greek equivalent of D, is used to represent the discriminant.
In the above equation a=-4, b=3 and c=-2, so
∆=3^2 - 4*-4*-2=9 - 32=-23, so because the discriminant is negative, then there are no x-intercepts.

Solve the inequality x-4 &lt; - 3.Then graph the solution set.show your work.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

x < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4 < - 3

<u>  + 4    +4</u>                        Do inverse operations by adding 4 on both sides

    x < 1

Therefore, the answer is x < 1.

(It isn't allowing me to attach a photo but I am just going to try make a visual of the graph below)

<------------------------------o------------------>

-4    -3    -2    -1     0    1     2    3      4

The circle is open because based on the concept that in inequalities, <em>less/greater than and/or equal to (such as these ≥ ≤ )</em> signs are graphed with closed circles, while less/greater than (like these > <) signs are graphed with open circles. The direction of the arrow is moving to the left on the number line because all possible values for x would be less than 1. When graphing the inequality you would use a solid line rather than a dashed line (I had to improvise since I could not attach an image).
