Part A: the radicand is the same as the discriminant, therefore is b2 - 4ac
In 9x^2 - 16x + 60 = 0, a = 9, b = -16, c = 60
so b2 - 4ac =

Part B: Solve 4x^2 + 8x - 5 = 0
What would make 8? (5×2)-2 = 8, so:
(2x+5)(2x-1) = 0
2x+5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2
2x-1 = 0
2x = 1
x = +1/2
So the solutions are: -5/2, +1/2

Step-by-step explanation:
He needs 36 cookies.
First do 20 * .27 for the first twenty
then do 16 * .17 for the other 16 cookies
Add 5.4 + 2.72 = 8.12

Answer: use google dot com
(f+g-k)(x) means to add the equations f(x) and g(x) then subtract k(x)
2x^2 + 3x + 4x - 9 = 2x^2 +7x -9
2x^2 + 7x - 9 - x^2 -7x = x^2 -9
The answer is : x^2 - 9
