This is a differential equations problem.  We are to work backwards and determine the function f(x) when given f "(x) and initial values.

<span>f ''(x) = 12x^2 + 6x − 4, when integrated with respect to x, yields:

                x^3        x^2
f '(x) = 12------ + 6----- - 4x + C, or 4x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x + C, and
                  3            2

             x^4         x^3        x^2
f(x) = 4------- + 3------- - 4------ + Cx + D, or f(x)=x^4 + x^3 - 2x^2 + Cx + D
               4              3         2

Now, because f(0)=5, 5=0^4 + 0^3 -2(0)^2 + C(0) + D, so that D=5.
Determine D in the same manner:  Let x=1 and find the value of C.

Then the solution, f(x), is x^4 + x^3 - 2x^2 + Cx + 5.  Replace C with this value and then you'll have the desired function f(x).</span>

Examine the quadratic equation 9x^2+12x +4= 0.
mestny [16]

Answer:

See answers and explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Discriminant = b² - 4ac = (12)² - 4(9)(4) = 144 - 144 = 0

B) Since the discriminant is 0, this means the equation only has one root.

C) The root is real in this case since the discriminant is not negative. Otherwise, we would have two imaginary roots if it were (remember that complex roots come in pairs)
