Answer:
2 roots in every case, not all are real.
Step-by-step explanation:
All of these equations are quadratic equations (degree 2). Every quadratic has two roots. They may be identical (looks like 1 root), and they may be complex (zero real roots), but there are always 2 of them.
a) the y-value of the vertex is negative and the parabola opens downward (leading coefficient -5), so there are no real zeros and both roots are complex.
b) each binomial factor contributes a root. Both roots are real.
c) the discriminant is positive, (3²-4·2·1=1), so both roots are real.

They're not equivalent.
(vertical bars) represents the absolute value of x. How it works is that it turns negative numbers positive but leaves 0 and positive numbers alone (hence it gets a number's distance from 0 on the number line).
(square brackets) usually represents the floor function, which returns the largest integer that is less than or equal to x. (The floor of x can also be written as
--- it depends on what your textbook/source says).
To solve
, you first transform it into the equivalent equation
. Then by definition of absolute value, there are only two solutions for the first equation: x = 10 or x = -10.
[x] = 10 has infinitely many solutions. For example, the floor of 10 is 10, so
, thus a solution for the second equation is x = 10
The floor of 10.1 is 10, so
, thus another solution for the second equation is x = 10.1.
The two equations do not have the same solution set (as x = 10.1 does not solve |x| - 3 = 7 but solves [x] = 10), so they're not equivalent.

Answer:
B. NON-REPRESENTATIVE
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>The sample does not represent the population as a researcher is taking a sample from the hospital where the cholesterol level of the patient is generally high and the researcher is not randomly selecting the U.S. citizens.</em>
Thus, option (B) is correct.
Further, the sample is a subset of the population and it is easy to analyze as compared to the population.
The sample is said to be representative if it represents the whole population.
