Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 3
b = 3
c = 1
Discriminate = sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)
Discriminate = sqrt(9 - 4*3*1)
Discriminate = sqrt(9 - 12)
Discriminate = sqrt(-3)
What negative value means that there are no real roots and the y intercept = 1. You should always graph this kind of question, which I am doing for you. I use Desmos which is a very handy program.
You should notice that the minimum is above the x axis. That means there are no real roots, just as the discriminate tells you.
Answer:
5 pints per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Morning:
Given:
Number of strawberries packed in every 4 minutes = 3
∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute =
So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes =
1 hour = 60 minutes.
So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 45 pints per hour in the morning.
Afternoon:
Number of strawberries packed in every 3 minutes = 2
∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute =
So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes =
1 hour = 60 minutes.
So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 40 pints per hour in the afternoon.
Difference between the packing rates is given as:
Morning rate - Afternoon rate = 45 - 40 = 5 pints per hour.
So, she packed 5 more pints in one hour in the morning than in the afternoon.
