timurjin [86]

The inequality which makes the function have two real roots is; m > -1/5.

<h3>What is the inequality which makes the function have two real roots?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the required inequality may be determined by subjecting the determinant to greater than 0 as follows;

D > 0

b² - 4ac > 0

(2)² - 4(m)(-5) > 0

4 +20m > 0

20m > -4

m > -4/20

m > -1/5

Bumek [7]

An equation that can be used to determine the value of x is x² + 5x - 36 = 0.

To answer the question, we need to know what equations are

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression which shows the relationship between two variables.

Given that the x represents the length of side of the square picture and the rectangular sheet poster leaving a border around the picture of 2 inches on the bottom and 1 inch on each remaining sides.

Then,

  • The width of the rectangular poster is W = x + 2 + 1 = x + 3.
  • The length of the rectangular poster is L = x + 1 + 1 = x + 2

So, the area of the rectangular sheet poster is A = LW

= (x + 2)(x + 3)

Since the rectangular sheet poster has an area of 42 square inches, A = 42 in².

So, (x + 2)(x + 3) = 42

x² + 3x + 2x + 6 = 42

x² + 5x + 6 - 42 = 0

x² + 5x - 36 = 0

So, an equation that can be used to determine the value of x is x² + 5x - 36 = 0.
