Answer:

Inverted parabola

Two complex solution

Step-by-step explanation:

any quadratic equation can be expressed in terms of ax^2 + bx + c = 0

It has two solutions which can be found using formula X =( -b + \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} )/2a \\or  \ ( -b - \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} )/2a

We know that  for any value inside the square root function

if it is positive its solution will be real number

for example  \sqrt{9} we can have two real solution -3 and 3

if it is negative its solution will be complex number

for example  \sqrt{-9}we can have two complex solution

expressed in term of a + ib or a - ib

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given in the problem

we have  ax^2 - bx + c

so its solution will be

X =( -(-b) + \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} )/2a \\or  \ ( -(-b) - \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} )/2a\\\\X =( b + \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} )/2a \\or  \ ( b - \sqrt{b^2 -4ac} )/2a\\

Since in this expression it is given in problem statement that b^2 - 4ac < 0 which will be a negative number and for negative number, its square root is complex number.

also X has two values as given above it will have two solution

hence it will have two complex solution based on above discussion.

Also for any quadratic equation shape of its curve if plotted on coordinate plane is parabolic.

If it has complex solution then curve of such expression  will not pass through X axis

Question 1 (1 point)
Naily [24]

Answer:

P ( -1, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio is AP : PB = 3 : 2 = m : n  and points A(5,6) B(-5,-9)

We will calculate coordinates of the point P which divides line segment AB  in the following way:

xp = (n · xa + m · xb) / (m+n) = (2 · 5 + 3 · (-5)) / (3+2) = (10-15) / 5 = -5/5 = -1

xp = -1

yp = (n · ya + m · yb) / (m+n) = (2 · 6 + 3 · (-9)) / (3+2) = (12-27) / 5 = -15/5 = -3

yp = -3  

Point P( -1, -3)

50 POINTS AND BRAINIEST PLEASE HELP
exis [7]

Answer:

<h2><u>y = -2x</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If you notice very carefully then you will see that the line passes through the points :

( 1 , - 2 )

( - 1 , 2 )

Hence the value of x = 1 when the value of y = - 2 .

We know that - 2 × 1 = - 2

⇒ - 2 x = y

⇒ y = - 2x

Hence the first OPTION is correct .

Verification :

For points ( - 1 , 2 ) we can write :

y = - 2x

⇒ 2 = - 2 × - 1

⇒ 2 = 2

Hence the answer is verified .

Always try to use the converse of the graphical method .

( Nothing converse is there ... just saying the opposite steps of that method :P )

I mean in graphical method we plot points and then join , here identify the joined points and then make the equation .

What are some of the reasons for Venus’s high temperatures?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

As sunlight passes through the atmosphere, it heats up the surface of Venus. Most of this heat cannot escape back into space because it is blocked by the very thick atmosphere of Venus. The heat becomes trapped and builds up to extremely high temperatures
