Answer:

A. if the discriminant is zero there is real solution

B. if the discriminant is negative there are 0 real solutions

C. if the discriminant is positive there are 2 real solutions​

Step-by-step explanation:

B² - 4AC is the discriminant

If B²-4AC < 0, no real roots

If B2-4AC = 0, roots are real and repeated

If B²-4AC > 0, roots are real and distinct

Answer:

A, B, and C

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is denoted by b^2 - 4ac, and it can give us information about the roots of the quadratic equation.

It tells us that if:

- b^2 - 4ac < 0 , then there are 0 real solutions; they're all imaginary (involving the letter i, which is the square root of -1)

- b^2 - 4ac = 0 , then there is 1 real solution; this 1 solution has a multiplicity of 2 because the roots of the quadratic are the same number

- b^2 - 4ac > 0 , then there are 2 real solutions; there are no imaginary solutions

Looking at the possible choices, we see that all of A (A, I'm assuming you meant to write "if the discriminant is zero there is one real solution"), B, and C reflect the above properties.

Thus, they're all right.

A rectangle has a length of (x+10) centimeters and a width of x centimeters. If the perimeter is 32 centimeters, what is the len
I am Lyosha [343]

Given:

Length of rectangle = (x+10) cm

Width of the rectangle = x cm

Perimeter = 32 cm

To find:

The length of the rectangle.

Solution:

We know that,

Perimeter=2(l+w)

Where, l is length and w is width.

Substituting the values, we get

32=2((x+10)+x)

32=2(2x+10)

32=4x+20

Subtract 20 from both sides.

32-20=4x

12=4x

Divide both sides by

3=x

So, the length is

3+10=13

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 13 cm.

How can you tell that −10 and −20 are solutions to this inequality, but 10 is not? 3n − 40 &lt; −5n + 8
pochemuha

Step-by-step explanation:

-10 or -20 satisfies the equation.

But when you substitute 10 in:

30-40<-50+8

-10<-42(wrong)

it's wrong

PLEASE HELP ME SOLVE THIS Find all x-values for which f ( x ) = 2 for the function below.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

<h3>x = -3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

First let us get the equation of the coordinates

y-y0 = m(x-x0)

Using the coordinates ( - 3, 2 ), ( - 1, 0 )

m = 0-2/-1-(-3)

m = -2/2

m = -1

Substitute m = -1 and (-1, 0) into the formula

y - 0 = -1(x+1)

y = -x-1

f(x) = -x-1

Since f(x) = 2

2 = -x-1

-x = 2+1

-x = 3

x = -3

Hence the value of x is -3
