Answer:
2 imaginary roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminate is the portion of the quadratic equation under the square root
D = b^2 - 4ac
D = 8^2 - 4(2)(16)
D = 64 - 128
D = -64
Since the discriminate is negative the square root will be imaginary
and there will be 2 of them
2 imaginary roots
Step-by-step explanation:
this simply means that the sum of both short segments must be the same as the length of the whole line.
so,
x + 6 + x + 8 = 10
2x + 14 = 10
x + 7 = 5
x = 5 - 7 = -2
Answer:
one tin of cheese $23
one tin of caramel $27
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'x' = cost of cheese tin
let 'y' = cost of caramel tin
10x + 8y = 446
22x + 11y = 803
i multiplied the first equation by -11 and the second by 8 to eliminate the 'y' terms
-110x - 88y = -4906
+ <u>176x + 88y = 6424</u>
66x = 1518
x = 1518 / 66
x = 23
find 'y': 10(23) + 8y = 446
230 + 8y = 446
8y = 216
y = 27
convert the feet to inches
1 foot = 12 inches
so 1.5 ft =1.5*12 = 18 inches
now multiply all 3
14*18*7 = 1764 cubic inches
<span>RS= 8y + 4, ST = 4y + 8, and RT = 36
RS + ST = RT
</span>8y + 4 + 4y + 8 = 36
12y + 12 = 36
12y = 24
y = 2
answer
y = 2 (first choice)
