Find the discriminant of the quadratic 3x^2 - 7x + 6.

1 answer:

7 0

Hello!

*Solve the equation:
$3x^{2} -7x+6 = 0$

**Separating the coefficients
a = 3, b = -7 e c = 6

***Calculating the value of the discriminant

Δ = b² – 4ac

Δ = (-7)² – 4.3.6

Δ = 49 – 72

Δ = - 23

p.s.: Δ <0. When the discriminant is less than zero, there are no real roots.

There are 4 triangles and 16 squares.what is the simplest ratio of triangles to square

brilliants [131]

1:4
The ratio of triangles to squares is 4:16 unsimplified because there are 4 triangles and 16 squares. To simplify the ratio, think of it as a fraction:
4/16
The fraction can be simplified to 1/4, meaning that the simplest ratio is 1:4.

The decreasing population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p=−0.

n200080 [17]

By solving a quadratic equation, it can be verified that

The owl population will disappear after 329.12 years

What is a quadratic equation?

At first it is important to know about equation

Equation shows the equality between two algebraic expressions by connecting the two algebraic expressions by an equal to sign.

A two degree equation is known as quadratic equation.

Here, a quadratic equation needs to be solved

The decreasing population, p, of owls in a national park is being monitored by ecologists and is modeled by the equation p= $-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200$

For population to disappear, p =0

$-0. 4t^2+128t+1,200 = 0\\0.4t^2 -128t - 1200 = 0\\4t^2 - 1280t - 12000 = 0\\4(t^2 - 320 t - 3000) = 0\\t^2 - 320t -3000 = 0\\t = \frac{-(-320)\pm \sqrt{(-320)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times (-3000)}}{2 \times 1}\\t = \frac{320 \pm 338.23}{2}\\t = \frac{320 + 338.23}{2} \ or \ t = \frac{320 - 338.23}{2}\\t = 329.115 \ or \ t = -9.115$
