Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the determinant to determine the type of zeros
Given
f(x) = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 ) ← in standard form, then the discriminant is
Δ = b² - 4ac
• If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real and distinct zeros
• If b² - 4ac = 0 then 2 real and equal zeros
• If b² - 4ac < 0 then 2 complex zeros
Given
f(x) = (x - 1)² + 1 ← expand factor and simplify
= x² - 2x + 1 + 1
= x² - 2x + 2 ← in standard form
with a = 1, b = - 2, c = 2, then
b² - 4ac = (- 2)² - (4 × 1 × 2) = 4 - 8 = - 4
Since b² - 4ac < 0 then the zeros are complex
Thus P(x) has no real zeros
Answer:
THIS IS HARD
Step-by-step explanation:
What we know:
Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 7 liters of natural oil for every 5 liters of synthetic oil.
What we need to find:
If 355 liters of synthetic oil are used, how many liters of petrolyn oil will be made?
Set up a proportion to find how much natural oil is used.
7L natural oil/5L synthetic oil = x/355 synthetic oil where x=natural oil
7/5=x/355
(5)(x)=(7)(355) cross multiplied
5x=2485 simplified
5/5x=2485/5 multiplicative inverse
x=497L
Now, add both synthetic oil and natural oil to find amount of petrolyn oil.
355 L synthetic oil + 497 L natural oil= 852 L of petrolyn oil
