ANSWER

The discriminant is 384. Because the discriminant is greater than 0 and is not a perfect square, the two roots are real and irrational.

EXPLANATION

The given quadratic equation is:

- 3 {x}^{2}  - 18x + 5 = 0

We compare this equation to:

a {x}^{2}  + bx + c = 0

We have a=-3,b=-18, and c=5.

The discriminant of a quadratic equation is calculated using the formula:

D=b^{2}  - 4ac

We plug in the values to obtain:

D= {( - 18)}^{2}  - 4( - 3)(5)

D= 324 + 60

Simplify:

D= 384

The discriminant is greater than zero, hence there are two distinct real roots.

Since 384 is not a perfect square, the roots are irrational.

Answer:

The answer is x = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Δ ABC is an Isosceles triangle with AB = CA

   m∠ ABC = ( 6x + 4 )°

   m∠ BAC = 73°

   m∠ BCA = ( 8y - 7 )°

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

Properties of an Isosceles Triangle.

  1. Base angles or two angles are equal.
  2. Any two sides are equal.

Here , Δ ABC is an Isosceles triangle with AB = CA

∴  m∠ BAC = m∠ BCA

73= 8y-7\\8y=73+7\\8y=80\\y=\frac{80}{10} \\y=10

∴      m∠ BCA = ( 8y - 7 )°

                       = 8 × 10 - 7

       m∠ BCA  = 73  Which is same as ∠ CAB

Property of a Triangle is Sum of the measures of the angle of a triangle is 180°.

\angle ACB + \angle CAB + \angle CBA = 180

Substituting the values we get,

73 + 73 + (6x+4) = 180\\6x+4=180-146\\6x=34-4\\6x=30\\x=\frac{30}{6} \\x=5\\

The answer is x = 5.
