- Discriminant Formula: b² - 4ac, with a = x^2 coefficient, b = x coefficient, and c = constant
So firstly, using our equation plug in the values into the discriminant formula and solve as such:
(-7)² - 4 × 3 × 4
49 - 48
1
So our discriminant is 1. <u>Since 1 is positive and a perfect square, this means that there are 2 real, rational solutions.</u>

Answer:
c) The equation to find the price of each shrub is $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50
The cost of 1 shrub = p = $ 9.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of shrubs purchased = 4
The price paid for potting soil = $17.50
The total bill of purchase = $53.50
Let us assume the cost of 1 shrub = $p
The total amount spent of 4 shrubs = 4 x ( The price of each shrub) = 4 p
TOTAL BILL = The amount paid for 4 shrubs + AMOUNT paid for SOIL
⇒ $53.50 = 4 p + $17.50
Now. solving for p, we get:
53.50 - 17.50 = 4 p
or, 3 6 = 4 p
or, p = 36/4 = 9
or, p = 9
Hence, the cost of each shrub = $9
Answer:
y = 4x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this, put the new line into the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
When two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. Since, the slope of the first line is 4, that means the slope of the second line is also 4.
So far, the equation is y = 4x + b.
Then, since you know (-2, -5) is a solution, x = -2, y = -5 is a solution so you can plug this into the equation.
This would be:
-5 = 4 * -2 + b
-5 = -8 + b
3 = b
This means the equation is y = 4x + 3.
