Compute the value of the discriminant and give the number of real solutions of the quadratic equation.

1 answer:

4 0

$-2x^2+6x-3=0 \\ \\
a=-2 \\ b=6 \\ c=-3 \\ \Delta=b^2-4ac=6^2-4 \times (-2) \times (-3)=36-24=12$

The value of the discriminant is 12.
Since the discriminant is greater than zero, the equation has two real solutions.

Line segment XY is tangent to circle Z at point U. If the measure of is 84°, what is the measure of ? 42° 84° 96° 168°

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The measure of angle YUV is equal to $m$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we have that

$arc\ UV=84\°$ -----> given problem

$m$ ------> by central angle

we know that

The triangle UZV is an isosceles triangle

because

$ZU=ZV=radius$

$m$ -----> bases angle of the isosceles triangle

Remember that

The sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to $180\°$

$m$

$2m$

substitute and solve for m<ZUV

$2m$

$m$

$m$ ------> by complementary angles

solve for m<YUZ

$48\°+m$

$m$

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Labor productivity is is measured per hours.

Hence, the work he does [amount of claims] will be distributed amongst the amount of hours he works. The amount of dollar he uses <em>doesn't matter for labor productivity.</em>

<em />

Thus, his work is 6 claims. He does that is 8 hours. So claim/hr is:

6/8 = 0.75 claims per hour

Answer choice D is right.
