Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x + c = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 1, b = 2 and c = c

If there are no real solutions then the discriminant

b² - 4ac < 0, that is

2² - (4 × 1 × c ) < 0

4 - 4c < 0 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- 4c < - 4

Divide both sides by - 4, reversing the sign as a consequence

c > 1

Hence a possible value of c is 3

Answer:

The possible value of 'x' is: 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial has no real solutions when the discriminat is less than zero. Given the following polynomial: ax^{2} +bx+c = 0 the discriminant is given by: Discriminant = b^{2}-4ac

In this case, a=1, b=2. By substituting those values:

Discriminant = 2^{2}-4(1)c ⇒ Discriminant = 4-4c

Given that the discriminant should be less tha zero, then 'c' must be greater than one.

In this case, the only possible value of 'x' is: 3.

Peter is making an "X marks the spot" flag for a treasure hunt. The flag is made of a square white flag with sides of 12 centime
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

34 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual question is How many inches of ribbon Peter will need to make the "X".

Using the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the diagonal of a square with 12 cm sides is:

d^2=12^2+12^2\\d=\sqrt{288}\\ d=16.97\ cm

Since the "X" requires two diagonals, the length of ribbon required is:

L=2*16.97\\L=34\ cm

The length required, rounded to the nearest centimeter, is 34 cm.
