Answer is B. 4,096
I encountered this problem before. This is a trick question.
84 is not really the number 84. It is 8 raised to the 4th power.
So 8⁴ is equal to 4,096.
8 x 8 x 8 x 8 = 4,096
8 x 8 = 64
64 x 8 = 512
512 x 8 = 4,096
Using the discriminant, the quadratic equation that has complex solutions is given by:
x² + 2x + 5 = 0.
<h3>What is the discriminant of a quadratic equation and how does it influence the solutions?</h3>
A quadratic equation is modeled by:
y = ax² + bx + c
The discriminant is:
The solutions are as follows:
- If
, it has 2 real solutions.
- If
, it has 1 real solutions.
- If
, it has 2 complex solutions.
In this problem, we want a negative discriminant, hence the equation is:
x² + 2x + 5 = 0.
As the coefficients are a = 1, b = 2, c = 5, hence:

Answer: 9 and 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The signs of the x-term and the constant term are both positive, so the signs of the constants in the binomial factors must be the same and must both be positive. The only offering that meets that requirement is
... C (2x+1)(3x+5)
_____
If you multiply that out, you get 6x² + 10x + 3x + 5 = 6x² +13x +5, as required.
The sign of the constant term is the product of the signs of the constants in the binomial factors: (+1)·(+5). We want a positive sign for the constant, so both binomial factor constants must have the same sign.
When the signs of the binomial factor constants are the same, the x-term constant will match them. Thus, for a positive x-term constant, both binomial factor constants must be positive.
