Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite this quadratic in standard form: 3x^2 + 7x - 1.
The coefficients of x are {3, 7, -1}, and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or
7^2 - 4(3)(-1), or 49 + 12, or 61. Because the discriminant is positive, this quadratic has two real, unequal roots
Step One: Find 25% of 48.
Step Two: Subtract that number from 48.
48 * 0.25 = 12
48 - 12 = 36
