Set it up as a proportion.

5 / x = 20 / 100
20x = 500
x = 25

There are 25 students in the class.

Explain why a quadratic equation with a positive discriminant has two real solutions, a quadratic equation with a negative discr
Bad White [126]

Answer:

A quadratic equation can be written as:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0.

where a, b and c are real numbers.

The solutions of this equation can be found by the equation:

x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}

Where the determinant is D = b^2 - 4*a*c.

Now, if D>0

we have the square root of a positive number, which will be equal to a real number.

√D = R

then the solutions are:

x = \frac{-b +- R }{2*a}

Where each sign of R is a different solution for the equation.

If D< 0, we have the square root of a negative number, then we have a complex component:

√D = i*R

x = \frac{-b +- C*i }{2*a}

We have two complex solutions.

If D = 0

√0 = 0

then:

x = \frac{-b +- 0}{2*a} = \frac{-b}{2a}

We have only one real solution (or two equal solutions, depending on how you see it)
