The perimeter is 72 because all sides on a square are the same measurements so you just have to do 18 times 4 to get 72
"The discriminant is prime?" I haven't heard that one before.
Here are the general rules:
1. a positive discriminant results in two real, unequal roots.
2. a zero discr. results in two real, equal roots.
3. a negative discr. results in two complex roots, which sometimes means two imaginary roots.
Answer:
-32/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-8 times 4= -32 put -32 over 4
Let area of triangle AEC = x
Area of triangle BAC = 1/2 * 15 * 12 = 90
Area of triangle DCA = 1/2 * 15 * 6 = 45
90 = p + x and
45 = q + x Subtracting the 2 equations:-
90 - 45 = p - q
Answer p - q = 45
