<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.

Whats an equation for (0,75) (7,40) in slope intercept form
Molodets [167]

The slope-intercept form: y = mx + b.

m - slope, b - y-intercept

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (0, 75) → y-intercept (b = 75), and (7, 40).

Substitute the coordimates of the points to the formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{40-75}{7-0}=\dfrac{-35}{7}=-5

<h3>Answer: y = -5x + 75.</h3>

The third one, 2 to the power of 5 over 6

√2  * 3√2

convert from radical form to exponent form to solve for the same root
( x^m/n = n√x^m )

2^(1/2) * 2^(1/3)  
2^{3/6} * 2^{2/6} - find common denominator (6)
6√(2^3) * 6√(2^2)  - convert back to radical form 
6√(2^3 * 2^2)- combine

6<span>√(</span>2^5)
then convert to exponential form again
~ 2^5/6 ~
