Answer:
a. Negative discriminant: above
b. Positive discriminant: below
c. Discriminant is zero: on
Step-by-step explanation:
If the discriminant is negative, then there are no real zeros. We have an upward-facing parabola, then the vertex is located above the x-axis
If the discriminant is positive, then there are two different real zeros. We have an upward-facing parabola, then the vertex is located below the x-axis
If the discriminant is zero, then there is one zero. We have an upward-facing parabola, then the vertex is located on the x-axis
You said 2x - 9 < 7
Add 9 to each side: 2x < 16
Divide each side by 2 : x < 8 .
Answer:
First calculate 49^8
Then take the square root of that answer.
Final answer is 5,764,801
Consecutive integers can be represented as x, x+1, x+2 and so on.
x+x+1+x+2+x+3+x+4=-65
5x+10=-65
5x=-75
x=-15
Final answer: -15, -14, -13, -12, -11
Answer:
x^2 -10x - 15 = 0
(don't know how far you want me to go)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 5)^2 = 40
(expand the brackets)
(x - 5)(x - 5) = 40
x^2 -5x -5x + 25 = 40
x^2 -10x + 25 = 40
x^2 -10x - 15 = 0
