You can use the <u>determinant</u><u> (square root)</u> of a quadratic equation to determine the number and type of solutions of the equation.

\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} > 0    → 2 real solutions

  • if \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} is a perfect square, then rational sol'ns
  • if \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} is not a perfect square, then irrational sol'ns

\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} = 0    → 1 real solution (double root)

\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} < 0    → 2 imaginary(complex) solutions

fenix001 [56]

Answer: 5 feet and 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

"Give yourself 100 pounds for the first 5 feet plus 5 pounds for every inch over 5 feet tall"

100 pounds for 5 feet + 5 pounds/inch [over 5 feet]

We can separate 135 pounds into two parts: the first 100 pounds and the other 35 pounds: 135 = 100 + 35

100 = 5 feet

35 pounds/5 pounds/inch = 7 inches

So, the height is 5 feet and 7 inches

use to find the maximum and minimum times for the track team

Using this equation to find the maximum times for the track team
