A. The discriminant is 81. The formula is b^2 - 4ac.
B. 2 answer and both will be rational due to the fact that the discriminant is a perfect square.
C. Solutions are 1/2 and -4. You can find using the quadratic formula.
We can make an equation that would help this. X will be the discount rate.
4x=3.60
Now, we need to solve the equation to find what X is.
Let's divide each side by 4.
x=.9
So, we know that the item was sold for 90% of what it was before, meaning that it has a 10% discount.
Answer:
B

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we know that:

And we want to find the value for
, so then we can use the following basic identity:

And if we solve for
we got:


And if we replace the value given we got:

For our case we know that the angle is on the II quadrant, and on this quadrant we know that the sine is positive but the cosine is negative so then the correct answer for this case would be:

Alrighty, what I was always taught was to start by writing out what you know from the question.
What I know:
-Tom is paid $0.23 for every page of proofs.
-He proofreads 1,992 pages.
In order to figure out how much money Tom has made, we need to multiply 0.23 by 1,992. Multiplying allows us to see the total amount of money made by proofreading x amount of pages - for every page he proofreads, he makes $0.23.
0.23×1992=458.16
Therefore, Tom made $458.16.
Hope this helps!
