80 x 3/10 = 240/10 = 24 times
The area of what? if those are the dimensions of a triangle, you would do base times height divided by 2.
Answer:
two real, unequal roots
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a quadratic equation. The quadratic formula can be used to determine how many and what kind of roots may exist:
Find the discriminant, which is defined as b^2 - 4ac, if ax^2 + bx + c = 0. In this case, a = 1, b = -2 and c = -8, so that the discriminant value is
(-2)^2 - 4(1)(-8), or 4 + 32 = 36.
Because the discriminant is real and positive, we know for certain that we have two real, unequal roots
All you have to is divide two consecutive terms to calculate the common ratio
1/4 divided by 5/12 = 1/4 * 12/5 = 12/20 = 3/5
