Answer: It has two distinct real zeros.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula that is used to calculate the discriminant of a Quadratic function is the one shown below:

In this case you have the following Quadractic function provided in the exercise:

Let's make it equal to 0:

You can identify that:

Knowing these values, you can substitute them into the formula and then evaluate:

Therefore, since:

You can determine that the it has two distinct real roots.

The base charge is 35 dollars per day. He rented the car for 3 days, so before you add in the mileage you have to multiply 35 x 3 days for 105 dollars. Then you have to take the remaining charge and divide it by the charge per mile to get the number of miles driven. Lets set up the equation.
d= number of days rented
m= number of miles driven
35(d) + .15(m) = 117.25
35(3) + .15m = 117.25
105 + .15m = 117.25
.15m = 117.25 - 105
.15m = 12.25
m = 12.25/.15
m = 81.67
So he drove 81.67 miles
200 decimeters
explanation: there is 10 decimeters in a meter
so 10×20=200
PLEASE MARK BRAINLIEST
X = cost of car before tax
Total cost = (cost of car before tax) + (tax amount)
Total cost = x + 5% of x
Total cost = x + 0.05x
Total cost = 1.05x
The total cost is given to be $14,512, which means
<span>Total cost = 1.05x = 14512
</span>
1.05x = 14512
1.05x/1.05 = 14512/1.05
x = 13,820.95238
x = 13,820.95
The total cost of the car before tax, to the nearest cent, is $13,820.95
