6 / 9 = 2/3 ( since dividing top and bottom be 3 gives 2/3)
Also 4/6 = 2/3
A. The discriminant is 81. The formula is b^2 - 4ac.
B. 2 answer and both will be rational due to the fact that the discriminant is a perfect square.
C. Solutions are 1/2 and -4. You can find using the quadratic formula.
Answer:
x = 5 or x = 2 or x = 0 or x = -3 thus 0 is the smallest root
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
x (x - 5) (x - 2) (x + 3) = 0
Split into four equations:
x - 5 = 0 or x - 2 = 0 or x = 0 or x + 3 = 0
Add 5 to both sides:
x = 5 or x - 2 = 0 or x = 0 or x + 3 = 0
Add 2 to both sides:
x = 5 or x = 2 or x = 0 or x + 3 = 0
Subtract 3 from both sides:
Answer: x = 5 or x = 2 or x = 0 or x = -3
