Answer:

A. Discriminant = 116

B. Number of solutions for the quadratic equation = 2

C. Type of solutions (circle one):Imaginary

D. Type of solutions (circle one):irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

{x}^{2}  + 8x = 13

We rewrite in standard form to get;

{x}^{2}  + 8x   - 13 = 0

The discriminant is

D =  {b}^{2}  - 4ac

where a=1, b=8, c=-13

We substitute to get:

D =  {8}^{2}  - 4 \times 1 \times  - 13

D = 64  + 52

D = 116

Since the discriminant is great than zero, we have two distinct real roots

Distance=speed times time
distance/time=speed

distance=538
time=9 and 15mins
60mins=1hr
15/60=1/4=0.25

time=9.25hr


distance/time=538/9.25=58.162mph
about 58mph

How does substitution help you to solve systems of equations?
kipiarov [429]
In solving equations, each must have vales of x and y. X is any number and Y is the output of any number. If you substitute x for a number, you can solve the equation for y.
