A) The quadratic equation is:
25x^2 + 10 x +1 =0
which is of the form
ax^2 + bx+c=0
Let's analyze the radicand:
b^2-4ac=(10)^2 - 4\cdot 25 \cdot 1=100-100 =0
The radicand is zero: this means that the equation has 2 coincident solutions.

We can find them by using the formula:
x= \frac{-b \pm  \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}= \frac{-10 \pm 0}{2 \cdot 25}=-0.2
So, the solution is x=-0.2 with multiplicity 2.

b) The equation is
4x^2-4x+1=0
Note that the radicand is zero again, as before:
b^2-4ac=4^2 - 4\cdot 4 \cdot 1=16-16=0
So we have two coincident solutions as before. We can find them using the same formula:
x= \frac{-b \pm  \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}=   \frac{-(-4) \pm  0 }{2 \cdot 4}= \frac{4}{8}=0.5
So, the solution is x=0.5 with multiplicity 2.

Please help with this question.

(cos Ф -cos Ф)² + (cos Ф + cos Ф)²

Firstly: (cos Ф -cos Ф)² = 0² = 0

Secondly :(cos Ф + cos Ф)² = (2cos Ф)². = 4. (cos Ф)² = 4cos² Ф

Mind you when you raise a cosine (or sin or tan...) to the n power, the n power should affect the cosine only and NOT the angle Ф

MAXImum [283]
The correct answer is option B

(5 + 3i)(4+ 2i)

= 5(4+2i) + 3i(4+2i)

= 20 +10i + 12i +6i²

= 20 +22i +6(-1)

= 20 + 22i - 6

= 14 + 22i
