Answer to Q1:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find discriminant is  

D= b²-4ac

Given equation is  

x²+4x+5=0

ax²+bx+c= 0 is general quadratic equation.

comparing given equation with general quadratic equation,we get

a= 1  ,b = 4 and c= 5

putting above values in the formula to find discriminant,we get

D= (4)²-4(1)(5)

D= 16-20

D= -4

Answer to Q2

Two  solution and imaginary

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is

x²-4x-5=0

The formula to find discriminant is D= b²-4ac

If D < 0 , the quadratic equation has two imaginary solutions.

If D > 0, the quadratic equation has two distinct real solutions.

If D = 0 , the quadratic equation has one solution.

x²+4x+5=0 has D=-4 which is less than zero.

hence, it has two imaginary solutions.

Answer:

D=-4<0, the equation has no real solutions, it has two imaginary solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic equation x^2 +4x+5=0 has coefficients

a=1,

b=4,

c=5.

The discriminant D is the expression

D=b^2-4ac.

Hence,

D=4^2-4\cdot 1\cdot 5=16-20=-4

Since the discriminant is negative, the equation has no real solutions, it has two imaginary solutions.

Find the values of m and b that make the following function differentiable.
Sonbull [250]
The derivative of f(x) at x=3 is 2x=6 approaching from the left side (apply power rule to y=x^2). The derivative of f(x) at x=3 is m approaching from the right side. In order for the function to be differentiable, the limit of derivative at x=3 must be the same approaching from both sides, so m=6. Then, x^2=mx+b at x=3, plug in m=6, 9=18+b, so b=-9.

Help please :) about to post more too

Answer:

Lets say test tubes = t, and beakers = b

1 pack of (t) is $4 less than 1 pack of (b)

Since i have no prior information we are going to use variables for this equation:

1t (1 pack of test tubes) is $4 less than 1b (1 set of beakers)

so to quantify the equation, we have 8t and 12b.

if b is a number that IS quantifiable such as $5 we can easily figure out this answer.

Lets use and example that 1 set of beakers is $8, if we multiply $8 by 12 (the number of sets of beakers), we get: 96

Using the same example, if 1t is $4 less than 1b than 1t = $4. So, if we multiply $4 by 8 (the amount of packs of test tubes), we get: 32

If you take both of those numbers: 96, and 32 and you divide them you get 3. so that means that 1t = 3b

Answer = 1t = 3b

This may not be correct due to the little information that i got however i hope that, that works out for you :)

Bess [88]

Answer:

-24, -2, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the arrow graph below; the more the dot is on the left means the more less number, the more the dot is on the right it means the more greater number. Sorry if my explanation is confusing.
