B is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3+2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the equation out.
1/4(12+8x)
(1/4*12)+(1/4*8x)
Multiple those out to get a new equation
3+2x
You cannot add those together because of the variable. Theres no way of knowing what x equals so this is as far as you can go therefor making the answer 3+2x
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
