Answer:
2 real solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember this messy thing?
![x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%5Cdfrac%7B-b%5Cpm%5Csqrt%7Bb%5E2-4ac%7D%7D%7B2a%7D)
The <em>quadratic formula</em>, as it's called, gives us the roots to any quadratic equation in standard form (ax² + bx + c = 0). The information on the <em>type</em> of roots is contained entirely in that bit under the square root symbol (b² - 4ac), called the <em>discriminant</em>. If it's non-negative, we'll have <em>real</em> roots, if it's negative, we'll have <em>complex roots</em>.
For our equation, we have a discrimant of (-3)² - 4(6)(-4) = 9 + 96 = 105, which is non-negative, so we'll have real solutions, and since quadratics are degree 2, we'll have exactly 2 real solutions.
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 - 8x+16
Set equal to zero
0 = x^2 -8x +16
Factor
what 2 numbers multiply to 16 and add to -8
-4*-4 = 16
-4+-4 = -8
0= (x-4)(x-4)
Using the zero product property
x-4 = 0 x-4 =0
x=4 x=4
The First one (A) because it’s a straight line
