The nature of the roots can be determined by the determinant of the equation. The determinant is:
b² - 4ac
If this is positive, there are two roots
If this is 0, there is only one root
If this is negative, there are complex roots
It would be negative seeing the key word is down. (:
Hope I could help!
Answer:
23,800 people
Step-by-step explanation:
what is 5 % of 14,000- 700( 0.05 times 14,000)
700 times 14 is 9,800
9800 + 14000 is
We are give the equation of the perimeter of the triangle as follows:
2a + b = 15.7
where b represents the base.
Now, if we want to calculate the length of the base, all we have to do is isolate the b in one side of the equation as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2a
We know that a = 6.3 cm, therefore, the length of the base can be calculated as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2(6.3) = 3.1 cm
