Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2-4x+1=0

This is written in the form

ax^2 +bx+c =0

a=2 b = -4 c =1

The discriminant is

b^2 -4ac

(-4)^2 -4(2)(1)

16 - 8

The discriminant is 8

1.a sphere with a radius of three units

By definition, the volume of a sphere is:
$V = ( \frac{4}{3} ) (\pi) (r ^ 3)
$
Substituting values we have:
$V=(\frac{4}{3})(\pi)(3^3)$
Rewriting we have:
$V = (4) (\pi) (3 ^ 2)

V = (4) (\pi) (9)

V = 36\pi$

2.a cone with a diameter of twelve units and a height of three units

By definition, the volume of a cone is given by:
$V = \frac{1}{3} (\pi) (r ^ 2) (h)
$
Substituting values we have:
$V = \frac{1}{3} (\pi) ((\frac{12}{2}) ^ 2) (3)
$
Rewriting we have:
$V = (\pi) (6 ^ 2)

V = 36\pi$
