Answer:

Discriminant = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We use formula to find the discriminant.

Discriminant (D) = b^2 - 4ac

The given equation is x^2 - 6x + 4 = 0.

Here the value of a = 1, b = -6 and c = 4.

Plug in the given values in the formula, we get

Discriminant (D) = (-6)^2 - 4*1*4

= 36 - 16

Discriminant = 20

Thank you.

Answer:

The blue and yellow macaw is 33 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the toucan is 22 inches long and it's two thirds the length of the macaw you can divide by two to find what one third is.

22 ÷ 2 = 11

So then you have to multiply by 3 to find what the full length is.

3 x 11 = 33 inches

Hope that helps and have a great day!

<h3>Answer: Choice C. (-x, -y)</h3>

Explanation:

Focus on one point, such as A = (1,2). Note how it moves to point A ' = (-1, -2). Both x and y coordinates have been flipped from positive to negative. The rule therefore is $(x,y) \to (-x,-y)$ . This describes a 180 degree rotation (either clockwise or counterclockwise, it doesn't matter). Points B and C follow the same idea.
