a) The linear function that models the population in t years after 2004 is: P(t) = -200t + 29600.
b) Using the function, the estimate for the population in 2020 is of 26,400.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
The initial population in 2004, of 29600, is the y-intercept. In 12 years, the population decayed 2400, hence the slope is:
m = -2400/12 = -200.
Hence the equation is:
P(t) = -200t + 29600.
2020 is 16 years after 2004, hence the estimate is:
P(16) = -200(16) + 29600 = 26,400.

We have, Discriminant formula for finding roots:

Here,
- x is the root of the equation.
- a is the coefficient of x^2
- b is the coefficient of x
- c is the constant term
1) Given,
3x^2 - 2x - 1
Finding the discriminant,
➝ D = b^2 - 4ac
➝ D = (-2)^2 - 4 × 3 × (-1)
➝ D = 4 - (-12)
➝ D = 4 + 12
➝ D = 16
2) Solving by using Bhaskar formula,
❒ p(x) = x^2 + 5x + 6 = 0



So here,

❒ p(x) = x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0



So here,

❒ p(x) = x^2 - x - 20 = 0



So here,

❒ p(x) = x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0



So here,

Answer:
x² - 64
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x + 8)(x - 8)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
x(x - 8) + 8(x - 8) ← distribute both parenthesis
= x² - 8x + 8x - 64 ← collect like terms
= x² - 64
