Using the discriminant of a quadratic equation, it is found that the quadratic equation would have one repeated solution for m = -3.
<h3>What is the quadratic equation?</h3>
The quadratic equation is given as follows:
mx² + 12x - 12.
<h3>What is the discriminant of a quadratic equation and how does it influence the solutions?</h3>
A quadratic equation is modeled by:
The discriminant is:
The solutions are as follows:
- If
, it has 2 real solutions.
- If
, it has 1 real solutions.
- If
, it has 2 complex solutions.
For this problem, the coefficients are:
a = m, b = 12, c = -12.
Hence the discriminant is:
b² - 4ac = 144 + 48m.
We want it to be of 0, hence:
144 + 48m = 0
m = -144/48
m = -3.

(cube root of 5) * sqrt(5)
--------------------------------- = ?
(cube root of 5^5)
This becomes easier if we switch to fractional exponents:
5^(1/3) * 5^(1/2) 5^(1/3 + 1/2) 5^(5/6)
------------------------ = --------------------- = ------------- = 5^[5/6 - 5/3]
[ 5^5 ]^(1/3) 5^(5/3) 5^(5/3)
Note that 5/6 - 5/3 = 5/6 - 10/6 = -5/6.
1
Thus, 5^[5/6 - 5/3] = 5^(-5/6) = --------------
5^(5/6)
That's the correct answer. But if you want to remove the fractional exponent from the denominator, do this:
1 5^(1/6) 5^(1/6)
---------- * ------------- = -------------- (ANSWER)
5^(5/6) 5^(1/6) 5
That means you first calculate divide and multiply and at the and plus and minus.
So
12 / 2 + 4 - 2 x 3 =
6 + 4 - 6 = 4
Answer:
it would be A:55%
Step-by-step explanation
For percent, to make it easier try to turn it into a 100.
20x5=100
do the same to the 9.
9x5=45.
Now subtract 45 from 100.
100-45=55.
There was a discount of 55%.
