6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

a1=ar⁰=12 A2=ar¹=-6

a=12 ar=-6

12r=-6

r=-6/12

r=-1/2

a10=ar⁹

=12*(-1/2)⁹

=12*(-512)

=-3/128

S∞ = a1 / (1-r )

=12/(1-1/2)

=12*1/2

=6

Solve please<br> A. 1/6m-3=-5<br> B. 2/3x-3=1/2x-7<br> C. x+x/2-4=x/4

AysviL [449]

Answer:

A m = 48

B x = -24

C x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 1/6m - 3 = 5

1/6m = 5+3

1/6m = 8

multiply both side by 6

m = 8×6

m = 48

B. 2/3x-3 = 1/2 x-7

2/3 x - 1/2 x = -7 +3

1/6 x = -4

multiply 6 to the both side

x = -4×6

x= -24

C.x+x/2-4= x/4

x+x/2 - x/4 = 4

x + l/2 x - 1/4 x = 4

1/4 x = 4

multiply both side by 4

x= 4×4

x = 16

How many real solutions does a quadratic equation have if its discriminant is negative?

kvasek [131]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Discriminant is given by

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

If it is negative then in quadratic formula the square root part becomes negative which makes the solution complex.

so there cannot be any real solution if the Discriminant is negative or less than 0 ,

The correct option for the given question is

A
