  • Calculation of the discriminant of the polynomial : 18+x+x²
  1. Applying the formula to calculate the discriminant Δ=b²−4 ⋅ a ⋅ c with :     a = 1, b= 1, c = 18
  2. Δ = (1)² − 4 ⋅ (1) ⋅ (18) = 1 −72 = −71  
  3. The discriminant of the polynomial 18+x+x² is equal to −71

Hope this helped!

Simplify<br> ^3<br> V-27n^27
Sauron [17]

Apply the radical rule to separate terms:

Cubicroot(-27) and cubic root(n^27)

Cubicroot(-27) = -3

Now you have -3 cubicroot(n^27)

Using the exponent rule

N^27 can be rewritten as (n^9)^3

Now you have -3 cubicroot((n^9)^3)

The cubic root and the 3rd power cancel out to get the final answer of

-3n^9

Multiply and simplify if possible.<br> sqrt 5x(sqrt x-5 sqrt 5)
RSB [31]
Making the assumption that your problem looks like this,
\sqrt{5x}(\sqrt{x}-5\sqrt{5})

we use the distributive property to multiply:
\sqrt{5x}\times \sqrt{x}-\sqrt{5x}\times5\sqrt{5}&#10;\\&#10;\\ \sqrt{5x^2} - 5\sqrt{25x}&#10;\\&#10;\\ x\sqrt{5}-25\sqrt{x}

Is this linear relationship proportional or non-proportional? Y = 5x + 1
Tanya [424]
Plug in numbers in for x. 
If you plug in 0 then you get 1. 1/0 is undefined
If you plug in 1 then you get 6. 6/1 is 6
If you plug in 2 then you get 11. 11/2 is 5.5
If you plug in 3 then you get 16. 16/3 is 5.3 repeating
If you plug in 4 then you get 21. 21/4 is 5.25
If you plug in 5 then you get 26. 26/5 is 5.2
It would only be proportional if you got the same answer after dividing each time.
