Answer: It has two distinct real zeros.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula that is used to calculate the discriminant of a Quadratic function is the one shown below:
In this case you have the following Quadractic function provided in the exercise:
Let's make it equal to 0:
You can identify that:
Knowing these values, you can substitute them into the formula and then evaluate:
Therefore, since:
You can determine that the it has two distinct real roots.

Answer:
y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Solve for y</u>
2y + 3 = 4y + 2
2y + 3 - 2 - 2y = 4y + 2 - 2 - 2y
1 / 2 = 2y / 2
1/2 = y
Answer: y = 1/2
Answer:
m [slope] = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
When the slope is 0, x cancels out so the y value will remain the same.
There are several methods to finding slope but the easiest way to do this is by dividing the second y value - first y value by the second x value - first x value.
m = ∆y/∆x = y2-y1/x2-x1
You y2 and x2 are interchangable with y and x, because y1, and x1 are part of the starting coordinate,.
The reason you subtract the second
value from the first is because in a directly proportional relationship, y increases as x increases so the next x values will have a greater y value, this is a measure of steepness.
So the slope is:
-1 - -1 / 3 - -2 = -1 + 1 / 3 + 2 = 0 / 5 = 0.
