a quadratic equation has a discriminant of 12. which could be the equation? a.0 = –x2 8x 2 b.0 = 2x2 6x 3 c.0 = –x2 4x 1 d.0 = 4

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Option b which is $2x^2+6x+3=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the discriminant 12

We have to choose the equation which will satisfy the given discriminant.

We will consider all the given equation one by one

First we will take option a which is $-x^2+8x+2=0$

Discriminant from the equation we will find by the formula

$D=b^2-4ac$

Here, a=-1,b=8 and c=2 on substituting the values we will get

$D=8^2-4(-1)(2)=72$

Hence, option a is incorrect.

Now, we will consider option b which is $2x^2+6x+3=0$

Here, a=2,b=6 and c=3 on substituting the values we get

$D=(6)^2-4(2)(3)=12$

Hence, option b is correct

Therefore, option b is the required answer.

What is (2 × 2) to the 2nd power, minus 4?

Ivan

Well first, you would do 2 x 2 which equals 4. Then you make 4 to the 2nd power, which is 16. You subtract 4 from 16, and it's 12.

faltersainse [42]

If there were 180 taking the survey and 95 were female, that means that there were 85 males.

Since only 21 of the males said red was their favorite color, we can write the fraction 21/85.

21 / 85 x 100 = 24.7%

24.7% of the males said red was their favorite color.

I already know dis but what I want to know if u do. what is the difference between a prime number and a composite

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The opposite of prime numbers are composite numbers. A composite number is a positive natural l number that has at least one positive divisor other than one or itself. The number 1 is not a prime number by definition - it has only one divisor.
