<span>xy = k

solve for k...

(8) * (8/3) = (64/3) = k

y = k / x

when x = 4,

y = (64/3) * (1/4) = (16/3)

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is the discriminant of the polynomial below x^2+4x+5

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf Discriminant = -4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing it with quadratic equation $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ , we get:

a = 1 . b = 4 and c = 5

So,

Discriminant = $b^2-4ac$

D = (4)²-4(1)(5)

D = 16 - 20

D = -4

Hence,

Discriminant = -4

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Hope this helped!

bezimeni [28]

Answer: A cardboard box without a lid is to have a volume of 32,000 cubic cm. Find the dimensions that minimize the amount of cardboard used

. ans: base 40 x 40, height = 20

Solution:

The typical box might look like the one below

where . In addition we have xyz = 32000 ,so we need to minimize .

We have,

From the geometry of the problem so y = x. So or x = 40.

Finally, y = x = 40 and z = 32000/(xy)=20.
