Answer:
(a) There are two complex roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant of a quadratic function describes the nature of its roots:
- <u>negative</u>: two complex roots
- <u>zero</u>: one real root (multiplicity 2)
- <u>positive</u>: two distinct real roots.

Your discriminant of -8 is <em>negative</em>, so it indicates ...
There are two complex roots
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
We generally study polynomials with <em>real coefficients</em>. These will never have an odd number of complex roots. Their complex roots always come in conjugate pairs.
Answer:
A) y=1/5x
Step-by-step explanation:
Coz, the way you identify a perpendicular line is by looking for its negative reciprocal. The neagtive reciprocal of 5= 1/5
Now, to check the ans we can multiply the negative reciprocal by "m"
(m in y=mx+c or y=mx+b)
in this case the "m" is stated as 5, so all we need to do is 1/5*5 if the ans is 1 then your ans is right....and over here it is
So thats how you identify & check perpendicular lines!
The distance between -6 and -3 on a number line is 3.
