The quadratic formula is =(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
as you notice the term under the square root is b^2-4ac if it is postive then the equation clearly will have two real soultions if it is negative then the equation will have two imaginary soultion if it is zero then the the equation will have one soultion
so let us calculate b^2-4ac for our given equation
x^2=4x-5 so let us write it in general form which is ax^2+bx+c=0
subtracting 4x from both sides
x^2-4x=-5
adding 5 to both sides
x^2-4x+5=0
a=1,b=-4,c=5
b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(5)=16-20=-4
which means the equation has two imaginary soultions
Answer:
169/4
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 13x + c
x² -2(x)(13/2) +(13/2)²
(13/2)² = 169/4 or 42 ¼
Answer:
perimeter = 6x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the triangle is the distance around the triangle.
We need to apply our ability to convert word problems in to mathematical expressions.
We were told that the bottom of the triangle is x units.
From the diagram perimeter 4x + 12 + x + 3 + x = 6x + 15
Four times the length of the bottom will be 4x .
12 more than 4 times the bottom will be 4x + 12.
Hence another side of the triangle is 4x + 12.
Finally we were told that the last side is 3 more than the bottom, that will be x + 3.
Answer: x^2 + 19
Step-by-step explanation: Cancel out x^2 and add 7 and 12 together. 7 + 12 = 19. Next plug in x^2. So, its now x^2 + 19.
Hope this help!
