Answer:
Part 1) The quadratic equation has zero real solutions
Part 2) The solutions are
and
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form
is equal to
in this problem we have
so
The discriminant is equal to

If D=0 -----> the quadratic equation has only one real solution
If D>0 -----> the quadratic equation has two real solutions
If D<0 -----> the quadratic equation has two complex solutions
<em>Find the value of D</em>
-----> the quadratic equation has two complex solutions
<em>Find out the solutions</em>
substitute the values of a,b and c in the formula
Remember that

Answer:
16
notice how a right triangle was formed, and the Pythagorean theorem could be used to solve this :
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 15^2 = 17^2
a^2 + 225 = 289
a^2 = 64
a= 8
multiply it by 2 to get the side of the base
8 * 2 = 16
840 centimeters ...there 100 centimeters in one meter
<span>B. 16 quarts of the 2% milk and 24 quarts of the 7% milk
First, let's create an equation to solve.
x = quarts of 2% milk
(40-x) = quarts of 7% milk
So we have the equation
x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5
Now to solve for x
x*2 + (40-x)*7 = 40*5
x*2 + 7*40 - 7*x = 40*5
x*2 - 7*x = 40*5 - 7*40
-5*x = - 2*40
x = 2*8
x = 16
So we need 16 quarts of 2% milk and 40-16 = 24 quarts of 7%, which matches option "B".</span>
