Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the standard quadratic equation is ax^2+bx+c=0
Let's compare all the given equation to it and , find discriminant.
1. a=2, b= -7, c=-9
So it has 2 real number solutions.
2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

So it has only 1 real number solution.
3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

So it has 2 real number solutions.
4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8
So it has 2 real number solutions.
5. a=3, b=5, c=3

Thus it does not has real solutions.
Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 gallon =2 quarts, so add the 2 quarts and the 1 quart of ginger ale, plus the one pint of lemonade and this makes 14 cups of punch
The correct answer is that the focus is, <u><em>(0,−2)</em></u>
1.) 168 inches
