Let us suppose the width is x feet

the length is given 12 feet

Perimeter of teh garden = 2( Length + width )= 2( 12+ x)

Fencing required = perimeter of garden

36 = 2( 12+x)

36 = 2*12 + 2x

36 = 24 + 2x

36-24 = 2x

12 = 2x

12/2 = x

6 = x

Width = x feet = 6 feet .Answer .

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.16x2 + 8x + 1 = 0double rootreal a
SSSSS [86.1K]

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.

Can someone help me out with this problem
ohaa [14]

Answer:

\fbox {1) A}\\\fbox {2) A}

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

What is the equation of aline that passes through the point (4,-8) and has a slope of -1/2?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The equation of the line will be:

y=-\frac{1}{2}x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • slope = m = -1/2
  • point (4, -8)

Point slope form:

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

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

y-\left(-8\right)=\frac{-1}{2}\left(x-4\right)

y+8=\frac{-1}{2}\left(x-4\right)

subtract 8 from both sides

y+8-8=\frac{-1}{2}\left(x-4\right)-8

y=-\frac{1}{2}x-6

Therefore, the equation of the line will be:

y=-\frac{1}{2}x-6
