Mademuasel [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

89 2 irrational roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant Is b²-4ac when the equation is in the form

ax²+bx+c so in the equation

a=2 b=5 and c=-8

plug into the equation for the discriminant

so 5²-4(2)(-8)

25-(-64) 2 negatives make a positive so

25+64=89

since 89 isn’t a perfect square 2 irrational roots

Which statement is true about vertical angles. 1 point Vertical angles are congruent if two lines are parallel. If vertical angl
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Vertical angles are always congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are formed when two straight lines intersect each other, thereby forming two pairs of opposite angles, which are called vertical angles. Thus, a pair of these vertical angles formed are congruent to each other. So therefore, if two angles are said to be vertical angles, it follows that they are congruent to each other.

Using the diagram attached below, we can see two straight lines intersecting each other to form two pairs of vertical angles:

<a and <b,

<c and <d.

Thus, <a is congruent to <b, and <c is congruent to <d.

Therefore, the standby that is true about vertical angles is that:

Vertical angles are always congruent.

Is y=3x-5 and 6x=2y+10 a solution
iVinArrow [24]
Y=3x-5
y-3x=-5
Times 2 from both side
y(2)-3x(2)=-5(2)
2y-6x=-10
Times negative from both side
(-)2y-6x(-)=(-)-10
-2y+6x=10
or
6x-2y=10


6x=2y+10
6x-2y=10
Furthermore, we see that both equation have the same 6x-2y=10 which means that both of them have infinity solutions, not a solution. Hope it help!
