The answer is -7 because :
a=1, b=1, c=2
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac
= 1^2 - 4*1*2
= -7

Answer:
a) 600
b) see below
c) 1.26 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The value of y when x=0 is the coefficient of the exponential term:
y = 600·3^(-0) = 600·1 = 600
There were 600 atoms to start.
__
b) see attached for a graph
__
c) The graph shows 150 atoms at t = 1.26, about 1.26 hours after the start of time counting.
If you want to find that value algebraically, substitute for y and solve for x. Logarithms are involved.
150 = 600·3^(-x)
150/600 = 3^(-x)
log(1/4) = -x·log(3)
x = -log(1/4)/log(3) = log(4)/log(3) ≈ 1.2618595
After about 1.26 hours, there were 150 atoms.
8 printers for $145 each is a total of $1160.
3 laptops for $439 is a total of $1317.
Therefore, the price of 3 laptops for $439 each cost more than 8 printers for $145 each.
