Hello!
The discriminant of quadratic functions is: b² - 4ac. Since the equation is in standard form, which is Ax² + Bx + C = 0 , we can substitute those values into our discriminant and simplify.
The value of the discriminant will tell us how many solutions there are to the given quadratic equation.
A positive discriminant will have two real solutions.
A discriminant of zero will have one real solution.
A negative discriminant will no real solutions.
1. Substitute, a = 16, b = 8, c = 1.
8² - 4(16)(1)
64 - 4(16)(1)
64 - 64(1)
64 - 64
0
Since the discriminant is zero, the answer is choice A, double root, because since it is raised to the power of 2, it must has two roots, but in this case, both of the roots the same x-values.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Q1</u>
⇒ Graph A is most accurate as the situation is linear and the dots indicate per cup as you can't have any rational part (such as 0.5 cups, etc.)
<u>Q2</u>
⇒ A
⇒ The graph is discrete because the sellers have limited the purchaser to buy a distinct whole number of cups
The answer is 74.90.
I don't understand what you mean by 'Why it doesn't show'
Answer:
The equation of the line will be:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Point slope form:

substituting the values m = -1/2 and the point (4,-8)


subtract 8 from both sides


Therefore, the equation of the line will be:
