What is the discriminant of 32x-4= 4x^2 + 60
1 answer:
Step One
Begin by getting one side of the question equal to zero.
32x -4 = 4x^2 + 60 Add - 32x + 4 from both sides.
0 = 4x^2 + 60 - 32x + 4 Collect like terms.
0 = 4x^2 - 32x + 64
Step Two
For this question, you could divide both sides by 4. It just makes the steps later on easier.
0 = x^2 - 8x + 16
Step Three
Calculate the discriminate.
The discriminate is b^2 - 4*a*c
a = 1; b = -8; c = 16
b^2 - 4*a*c = (-8)^2 - 4*(1)(16) = 64 - 64 = 0
There is only 1 root. It is real and it is rational.

Answer:
The weighted average is of 69.94.
Step-by-step explanation:
Weighted average:
The weighed average is found multiplying each grade by its respective weight.
The grades, and weights are:
67 on the lab, with a weight of 23% = 0.23
69 on the first major test, with a weight is 21.5% = 0.215
85 on the second major test, with a weight is 21.5% = 0.215.
63 on the final exam, with a weight of 34% = 0.34.
Weighted average:
The weighted average is of 69.94.
