The standard form of a quadratic equation is ,
ax² + bx + c = 0.
And the formula to find the discriminant is b² - 4ac.
Here the first step is to change the given equation into standard form. So, add 1 to each sides of the equation. Therefore,
2x² – 9x + 2+1 = –1 + 1
2x² – 9x + 3 = 0
Next step is to compare the given equation with this equation to get the value of a, b and c.
After comparing the equations we will get a = 2, b = -9 and c = 3.
So, discriminant = b²- 4ac
=( -9)²-4 (2)(3)
= 81 - 24
= 57
So, discriminant of the given equation is 57.
57 is greater than 0 and square root of 57 will result real number.
So, the correct choice is C: The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots.
The answer is most likely C. Cubic meters.

We are supposed to find the probability that the high temperature on October 31 in a randomly chosen year will be between 46 degrees and 58 degrees
Formula : 
at x = 46
Refer the z table for p value
p value = 0.3085
at x = 58
Refer the z table for p value
p value = 0.8413
Hence the probability that the high temperature on October 31 in a randomly chosen year will be between 46 degrees and 58 degrees is 0.5328
Answer:
A- 0.125
B- Success of climbing mount Everest is independent of age.
Step-by-step explanation:
A.
Let x denote success in climbing Mount Everest
Let y denote the climber is at least 60 years old.
Therefore,
P(x) = 0.31
P(y) = 0.04
P( x ∩ y) = 0.005
Probability of success when the climber is at least 60 years old =
P( x ∩ y) ÷ P(y) = 0.005 ÷ 0.04 = 0.125.
B.
The success rate is independent of age as there are both success and failure rates across board on the scale of ages of climbers.
