Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
(x^2 +3)(5x+9)
5x^3 + 9x^2 + 15x + 27
so to find 15% of 54,237, we use this equation: (x/54237) = (15/100) where x is the amount of income tax.
cross multiply: 100x = 813555
divide each side by 100 to isolate x: 8135.55
the truck driver will pay $8135.55
