What is the discriminant of 3x^2 - 10 = -2?

Tatiana [17]3 years ago

The formula for the discriminant is b^2-4ac. The formula you wote is in the form of 
ax^2+c=0, so first, you need to bring that -2 to the left. When you do that, you get (the original equation would be ax^2+bx+c but you have no bx.)

3x^2-8

So, since there's no b, it would be
b^2-4ac
0^2-4(3)(-8
-12 x -8
96

SVEN [57.7K]
X = width

2x + x = 3 · 13.73
3x = 41.19
x = 13.73

The width is 13.73 units.

\[f(x)=\sqrt{x ^4-16x ^{2}}\]
marusya05 [52]
f ( x ) =  \sqrt{ x^{4} -16 x^{2} }
a ) The domain:
x^4 - 16 x² ≥ 0
x² ( x² - 16 ) ≥ 0
x² - 16 ≥ 0
x² ≥ 16
x ∈ ( - ∞, - 4 ] ∪ [ 4 , + ∞ )
b ) f ` ( x ) = \frac{1}{2 \sqrt{x ^{4}-16 x^{2}  } } *  ( x^{4}-16 x^{2} )` =
= ( 2 x³ - 16 x ) / √(x^4 - 16 x²)
c ) The slope of the tangent line at x = 5:
f ` ( 5 ) = ( 2 * 125 - 16 * 5 ) / √ ( 625 - 400 ) = 170 / 15 = 34 / 3
The slope of the line normal to the graph at x = 5:
m = - 3 / 34

The cost of six hens and one duck at the university poultry farm is GH₵40. While four hens and three ducks cost GH₵36. What is t
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call hens h and ducks d. The first algebraic equation says that 6 hens (6h) plus (+) 1 duck (1d) cost (=) 40.

The second algebraic equations says that 4 hens (4h) plus (+) 3 ducks (3d) cost (=) 36.

The system is

6h + 1d = 40

4h + 3d = 36

The best way to go about this is to solve it by substitution since we have a 1d in the first equation. We will solve that equation for d since that makes the most sense algebraically. Doing that,

1d = 40 - 6h.

Now that we know what d equals, we can sub it into the second equation where we see a d. In order,

4h + 3d = 36 becomes

4h + 3(40 - 6h) = 36 and then simplify. By substituting into the second equation we eliminated one of the variables. You can only have 1 unknown in a single equation, and now we do!

4h + 120 - 18h = 36 and

-14h = -84 so

h = 6.

That means that each hen costs $6. Since the cost of a duck is found in the bold print equation above, we will sub in a 6 for h to solve for d:

1d = 40 - 6(6) and

d = 40 - 36 so

d = 4.

That means that each duck costs $4.
