The automobile was invented in 1886, therefore it is 132 years old. The odometer was invented in 1775. It is 243 years old.
Answer:
- no real solutions
- 2 complex solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation can be rearranged to vertex form:
x^2 -4x = -5 . . . . . . . . . subtract 4x
x^2 -4x +4 = -5 +4 . . . . add 4
(x -2)^2 = -1 . . . . . . . . . show the left side as a square
x -2 = ±√-1 = ±i . . . . . . take the square root; the right side is imaginary
x = 2 ± i . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 2. These are the complex solutions.

<em>Comment on the question</em>
Every 2nd degree polynomial equation has two solutions. They may be real, complex, or (real and) identical. That is, there may be 0, 1, or 2 real solutions. This equation has 0 real solutions, because they are both complex.

Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
For studs 16" O.C., Chalberg will need 9: one at the beginning of each of the 16" spaces in the 96" width of the wall, and one at the end. That's a total of 6+1 = 7 studs.
The top and bottom edges of the wall are each 8', so will require 1 more board each.
The total number of boards Chalberg needs is 9.
