Answer:

The correct answer options are,

A: 0

B: There is one real root with a multiplicity of 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discriminant of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 is given by,

b² - 4ac

It is given a quadratic equation 9x² + 24x + 16 = 0

To find the discriminant 

Here a = 9, b = 24 and c = 16

Discriminant = b² - 4ac

= 24² - (4 * 9 * 16)

= 576 - 576

= 0

The correct options are

A: 0

B: There is one real root with a multiplicity of 2.

What is the solution to this inequality?

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{D. \quad x < 3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is necessary to isolate the term of x from one side of an inequality to find its solution.

First, add by 8 from both sides.

$\sf{-4x-8+8 > -20+8}$

Solve.

-20+8=-12

Rewrite the problem down.

$\sf{-4x > -12}$

Multiply by -1 from both sides.

(-4x)(-1)<(-12)(-1)

Solve.

Multiply the numbers from left to right.

(-12)(-1)=12

4x<12

Divide by 4 from both sides.

4x/4<12/4

Solve.

Divide the numbers from left to right.

12/4=3

x<3

Therefore, the correct answer is D. x<3 (last option).

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

Logx(8x-3)-logx 4=2 please help ill give you everything i have !!

Gelneren [198K]

Logx (8x-3) - logx 4 = 2
logx [(8x-3)/4] = 2
x^2=(8x-3)/4
4x^2=4(8x-3)/4
4x^2=8x-3
4x^2-8x+3=8x-3-8x+3
4x^2-8x+3=0
4(4x^2-8x+3=0)
(4^2)(x^2)-8(4x)+12=0
(4x)^2-8(4x)+12=0
(4x-2)(4x-6)=0
2(4x/2-2/2)2(4x/2-6/2)=0
4(2x-1)(2x-3)=0
4(2x-1)(2x-3)/4=0/4
(2x-1)(2x-3)=0
Two options:
1) 2x-1=0
2x-1+1=0+1
2x=1
2x/2=1/2
x=1/2

2) 2x-3=0
2x-3+3=0+3
2x=3
2x/2=3/2
x=3/2

Answer: Two solutions: x=1/2 and x=3/2
