(1.2×10^2) + (3.04×10^5)
They must be to the same power to add
3.04 *10^5 to change to the 2nd power (5-2=3) move the decimal 3 places to the right = 3040. * 10^2
1.2 * 10^2 + 3040 *10^2=
add the numbers keep the exponents the same
3041.2 * 10^2
there can only be 1 number before the decimal in scientific notation so we need to move the decimal 3 places to the left, which adds 3 to the exponent
3.0412 * 10 ^ (2+3)
3.0412 * 10^5

Answer:
A. Discriminant = 116
B. Number of solutions for the quadratic equation = 2
C. Type of solutions (circle one):Imaginary
D. Type of solutions (circle one):irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
The given quadratic equation is

We rewrite in standard form to get;

The discriminant is

where a=1, b=8, c=-13
We substitute to get:



Since the discriminant is great than zero, we have two distinct real roots
I think the answer you have there is correct
