I think the answer is b i've never learned this sorry :(
Let's actually find the roots, using the quadratic formula:
<span>p(x)=x^2+x+3 gives us a=1, b=1 and c=3.
-1 plus or minus sqrt(1^2-4(1)(3))
Then x = -----------------------------------------------
2
The discriminant here is negative, so the roots x will be complex:
-1 plus or minus sqrt(-11) -1 plus or minus i*sqrt(11)
x = ---------------------------------- = -------------------------------------
2 2
These are irrational roots; they cannot be expressed as the ratios of integers.</span>
Irregular hexagons (Meaning 6 sides, irregular is optional) and quadrilaterals.
1) We can determine by the table of values whether a function is a quadratic one by considering this example:
x | y 1st difference 2nd difference
0 0 3 -0 = 3 7-3 = 4
1 3 10 -3 = 7 11 -7 = 4
2 10 21 -10 =11 15 -11 = 4
3 21 36-21 = 15 19-5 = 4
4 36 55-36= 19
5 55
2) Let's subtract the values of y this way:
3 -0 = 3
10 -3 = 7
21 -10 = 11
36 -21 = 15
55 -36 = 19
Now let's subtract the differences we've just found:
7 -3 = 4
11-7 = 4
15-11 = 4
19-15 = 4
So, if the "second difference" is constant (same result) then it means we have a quadratic function just by analyzing the table.
3) Hence, we can determine if this is a quadratic relation calculating the second difference of the y-values if the second difference yields the same value. The graph must be a parabola and the highest coefficient must be 2
