Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation: x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = -4.
The formula for the discriminant is b^2 - 4(a)(c).
Substituting the given values of a, b and c, we get:
(3)^2 - 4(1)(-4)
Evaluating this, we get 9 + 16 = 25.
The discriminant is 25.
-3 plus or minus √25
Taking this further, x = ------------------------------------
2
-3 plus or minus 5
or: x = -------------------------------- => {-4, 1} (solutions)

Answer:
A.) The coordinates of M' are (-2/4, -4/5)
The coordinates of N' are (1/5, 1)
B.) The scale factor of the dialation is 3
A because two negatives make a positive
Answer:
$1.68
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that cents are in the hundredths place. So think of it as rounding to the nearest hundredth place. 1.6845 ---> 1.68
