Answer:
No <em>real</em> solutions (or has two complex roots)
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant, <em>b</em>² - 4<em>ac</em>, is the expression (<u><em>radicand </em></u>) of the quadratic equation:
.
The value of the discriminant determines the <u>nature</u> and the <u>number of solutions</u> given by the quadratic equation.
A discriminant with a negative value (or b² - 4ac < 0 ) means that the quadratic equation has no real solutions or two complex solutions. Quadratic equations with a negative discriminant also have no x-intercepts; thus, its graph will not cross the x-axis.
Answer: 150%
Step-by-step explanation:
A store buys a television for $120.
The store then sells the television for $300.
The makeup is the amount they increased the cost price by to get to the selling price.
= 300 - 120
= $180
In percentage terms it is:
= 180/120 * 100%
= 150%
Answer:
$2,410.69
Step-by-step explanation:
$1,950 x 1.15 = $2,242.50 after 15% markup
$2,242.50 x 1.075 = $2,410.68 after the 7.5% sales tax.
or you can do:
$1,950 x 0.15 = $292.5 markup
$1,950 + $292.5 = $2,242.50
$2,242.50 x 0.075 = $168.19 for sales tax
$2,242.50 + $168.19 = $2,410.69 total
The answer is B) 2/13.
An easy way to figure this out is to find what the unsimplified probability would be:
Since there are 8 kings and queens in total, the number is:
8/52
But, since these are both even numbers, they can be simplified.
1/4 x 8 = 2
1/4 x 52 = 13
2/13
Since 13 is a prime number, the answer cannot be simplified anymore.
