Find two consecutive even integers whose sum is 22

andrew11 [14]

10 & 12

x = 1st consecutive even number

x + 2 = 2nd consecutive even number

x + x + 2 = 22

2x + 2 = 22

2x = 20

x = 10

x + 2 = 12

10 and 12 are the two consecutive even numbers

Use the discriminant to determine the number of solutions to the quadratic equation 3x^2+5x=-1

kari74 [83]

Answer:

Two real distinct solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Background of the Discriminant

The discriminant $b^2-4ac$ applies to quadratic equations when they are organised in standard form: $ax^2+bx+c=0$ .

All quadratic equations can be solved with the quadratic formula: $x = \frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}}$ .

When $b^2-4ac$ is positive, it is possible to take its square root and end up with two real, distinct values of x.

When it is zero, we won't be taking the square root at all and we will end up with two real solutions that are equal, or just one solution.

When it is negative, it is impossible to take the square root and we will end up with two non-real solutions.

Solving the Problem

$3x^2+5x=-1$

We're given the above equation. It hasn't been organised completely in $ax^2+bx+c=0$ , but we can change that by adding 1 to both sides to make the right side equal to 0:

$3x^2+5x+1=0$

Now that we can identify the values of a, b and c, we can plug them into the discriminant:

$D=b^2-4ac\\D=(5)^2-4(3)(1)\\D=25-4(3)(1)\\D=25-12\\D=13$

Therefore, because the discriminant is positive, the equation has two real, distinct solutions.

I hope this helps!
