If the discriminant, b² - 4ac is<u> positive</u>
<h3>How to complete the statement?</h3>
From the question, we have the following equation of discriminant
The discriminant (d) is calculated as
d = b² - 4ac
The solutions of a quadratic equation are dependent on the following conditions
- If d = 0, the quadratic equation has 1 real solution
- If d < 0, the quadratic equation has imaginary solutions
- If d > 0, the quadratic equation has 2 different real solutions
This means that "d > 0, the quadratic equation has 2 different real solutions" implies that the discriminant is positive
Hence, the complete statement is (b) positive

Answer:
x= -2y/3
-4y+4y=14
0y= 14
This has no solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer In cases of two equations having two unknown variables the simultaneous method of solving the equations is adopted.
Supposing “0” as the value of “k” we will have the equation as 3x+2y=0
Then separating variable x will give, x= -2y/3
Substituting the value of x into the first equation that is: 6x + 4y = 14
6(-2y/3)+4y=14
Expanding this we get: 6(-2y/3)+4y=14
-4y+4y=14
0y= 14
Thus, no solution.
Let
x: amount of pounds of cheese that Bill can buy.
We can write the following inequation for this problem
x <= 1/2
Therefore, Bill could buy up to 1/2 pound of cheese.
answer
1/2 pound of cheese (maximum)
Answer:
13 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(5)^2 + (12)^2 = c^2
c^2 = 169 in^2
c = 13 inches
Assuming that the cost per minute is the same for both months and the plan fee is the same, you can use y=mx+b for this
y is the cost of the phone plan, x is the cost per minute and b is the start cost.
so 19.41=25x+b for the first month
and 45.65=380x+b for the second month
solve both for b you get:
19.41-25x=b and 45.65-380x=b. from this we get
19.41-25x=45.65-380x
solve for x
328x=26.24 and x=0.08
this means the cost per minute is 0.08c/min (answer A)
rewrite the equation to calculate b, and where this time, the x is the number of minutes talked.
y=0.08x+b and plug in one of the two months
45.65=0.08 * 380 + b
Solve for b and b is 15.25
so the final equation is
y=0.08x+15.25 (answer B)
