jeyben [28]

Answer:

The answer is 4y.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would solve the parentheses, which would be -1(-3y) which would equal positive 3y, and y+3y=4y. I apologize if I misunderstood the problem ^^

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.16x2 + 8x + 1 = 0double rootreal a
SSSSS [86.1K]

Hello!

The discriminant of quadratic functions is: b² - 4ac. Since the equation is in standard form, which is Ax² + Bx + C = 0 , we can substitute those values into our discriminant and simplify.

The value of the discriminant will tell us how many solutions there are to the given quadratic equation.

A positive discriminant will have two real solutions.

A discriminant of zero will have one real solution.

A negative discriminant will no real solutions.

1. Substitute, a = 16, b = 8, c = 1.

8² - 4(16)(1)

64 - 4(16)(1)

64 - 64(1)

64 - 64

0

Since the discriminant is zero, the answer is choice A, double root, because since it is raised to the power of 2, it must has two roots, but in this case, both of the roots the same x-values.

HєƖρ ρƖєαѕє!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mrrafil [7]
Ok let us assume x= the width of the table top
the length is 4 times the width meaning we are multiplying 4 and the width
which is x
length = 4x
your first equation would be the following:
4x+4x+x+x= whatever the perimeter is
if you drew a rectangle it would help you understand the above.

this represents the perimeter of the tabletop because we know the width is x. if you drew the rectangle there wouldn't be 1 width. opposite to the width is another line. same with the length. the length is 4x again there are 2 because in a rectangle there are 2 sets of parallel lines. that is why your equation would be 4x+4x+x+x= whatever the perimeter is- you could simplify this equation and write:
10x= whatever the perimeter is
x basically means 1x but in math we generally don't write that because we tend to write most things in simplest for.
hope this helps :)
