Answer:

0 real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant (D) is given by the formula:

D=b^2-4ac

Where a,b, and c are gotten from the standard form of a quadratic equation, which is  ax^2+bx+c=0

The equation given is  3x^2-5x+4=0

<em>From this we can say that a = 3, b = -5, & c = 4. Plugging these into the discriminant formula we get:</em>

D=b^2-4ac\\D=(-5)^2-4(3)(4)\\D=-23

<u>There are 3 things that we can find from the value of discriminant:</u>

1. If D=0, there are 2 equal, real roots

2. if D>0, there are 2 distinct real roots

3. if D<0, there are no real roots, rather 2 imaginary roots

Since the value of the discriminant is negative (D<0), we can say that there are no real solutions for the equation given.

Answer:

<h2>0</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Use the discriminant:}\\\\ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\\text{If}\ \Delta>0\ \text{then the equation has two real solutions:}\ x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\text{If}\ \Delta=0\ \text{then the equation has one real solution:}\ x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\\\text{If}\ \Delta

\text{We have the equation:}\\\\3x^2-5x+4=0\\\\a=3,\ b=-5,\ c=4\\\\\Delta=(-5)^2-4(3)(4)=25-48=-23

What is solution to this equation 4x=124
kkurt [141]

4x= 124

divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself

4x/4= 124/4

Cross out 4 and 4, divide by 4 and then becomes 1*1*x= x

124/4

12/4= 3

4/4= 1

Answer: x= 31

Express f(x) = |x-2| +|x+2| in the non-modulus form. Hence, sketch the graph of f.
alexgriva [62]
Recall that

|x|=\begin{cases}x&\text{if }x\ge0\\-x&\text{if }x

There are three cases to consider:

(1) When x+2, we have |x+2|=-(x+2) and |x-2|=-(x-2), so

|x-2|+|x+2|=-(x-2)-(x+2)=-2x-4

(2) When x+2\ge0 and x-2, we get |x+2|=x+2 and |x-2|=-(x-2), so

|x-2|+|x+2|=-(x-2)+(x+2)=4

(3) When x-2\ge0, we have |x+2|=x+2 and |x-2|=x-2, so

|x-2|+|x+2|=(x-2)+(x+2)=2x

So

|x-2|+|x+2|=\begin{cases}-2x-4&\text{if }x

Determine the values of the constants b and c so that the function given below is differentiable. f(x)={2xbx2+cxx≤1x&gt;1
Lera25 [3.4K]
Assuming the function is

f(x)=\begin{cases}2x&\text{for }x\le1\\bx^2+cx&\text{for }x>1\end{cases}

For f(x) to be differentiable, it necessarily has to be continuous. For this condition to be met, we need

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^-}f(x)=\lim_{x\to1^+}f(x)=f(1)
\iff\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}2x=\lim_{x\to1}(bx^2+cx)
\iff2=b+c

For the derivative to exist, the one-sided limits of the derivative must also exist and be equal. We have

f'(x)=\begin{cases}2&\text{for }x1\end{cases}

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1^-}2=\lim_{x\to1^+}(2bx+c)
\iff2=2b+c

Now we solve for b and c:

\begin{cases}b+c=2\\2b+c=2\end{cases}\implies b=0,c=2
