Let d = discriminant

d = b^2 - 4ac

Let a = 2, b = 4 and c = -9

We now plug and chug.

d = (4)^2 - 4(2)(-9)

d = 16 - 8(-9)

d = 16 + 72

d = 88

Answer:

А. 88

Step-by-step explanation:

2х^2 + 4x - 9

This is in the form

ax^2 +bx +c

where a=2 b=4 and c=-9

The discriminant is

b^2 -4ac

Substituting into the equation

4^2 -4(2) (-9)

16 - (-72)

16+72

88

<h3>What is problem solving?</h3>

It should be noted that problem-solving enables us to identify and exploit opportunities in the environment and exert control over the future.

In this case, problem solving skills and the problem-solving process are a critical part of daily life both as individuals and organizations

Also, good problem solving activities provide an entry point that allows all students to be working on the same problem.

In this case, the open-ended nature of problem solving allows high achieving students to extend the ideas involved to challenge their greater knowledge and understanding and problem solving develops mathematical power.

Find angle x and y. Please show step by step process.
lora16 [44]

Answer:

x = 60, y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ABC has 3 congruent sides and is equiangular, thus

the 3 angles are congruent, all 60°

x = 60

∠ ABC and ∠ CBD are adjacent and supplementary, sum to 180° , then

∠ CBD = 180° - 60° = 120°, so

y = 180 - (120 + 35) = 180 - 155 ← sum of angles in triangle

y = 25
