Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
Answer:
3x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's what I found on google about the distributive property-
To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
Now for the math-
3(x+5)
distribute the numbers- 3(x)+3(5)
solve- 3*5=15
3x+15
Answer:
a. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles = 180 degrees
180 - 80 = 100
100 = (4x - 4) + (0.5x + 32)
4x - 4 + 0.5x + 32 =100
(4x + 0.5x) +(-4 + 32) = 100
4.5x + 28 = 100
4.5x + 28 -28 = 100 - 28
4.5x = 72
4.5x/4.5 = 72/4.5
x = 16

Answer:
3, in both a), b)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The slope of the line tangent to the curve that passes through the point (2,-10) is equal to the derivative of p at x=2.
Using differentiation rules (power rule and sum rule), the derivative of p(x) for any x is . In particular, the value we are looking for is .
If you would like to compute the equation of the tangent line, we can use the point-slope equation to get
b) The instantaneus rate of change is also equal to the derivative of P at the point x=2, that is, P'(2). This is equal to .
