M = 57+46
(Since she has 46 less then martha, you know to find how many martha has you have to add 46!)
M=103
So martha has 103 coins!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=12
x-y=18
Now eliminate the y by adding the two equations together to get
2x=30
x=15
then solve for y.
15+y=12
15-y=18
y= -3
The standard form of a quadratic equation is ,
ax² + bx + c = 0.
And the formula to find the discriminant is b² - 4ac.
Here the first step is to change the given equation into standard form. So, add 1 to each sides of the equation. Therefore,
2x² – 9x + 2+1 = –1 + 1
2x² – 9x + 3 = 0
Next step is to compare the given equation with this equation to get the value of a, b and c.
After comparing the equations we will get a = 2, b = -9 and c = 3.
So, discriminant = b²- 4ac
=( -9)²-4 (2)(3)
= 81 - 24
= 57
So, discriminant of the given equation is 57.
57 is greater than 0 and square root of 57 will result real number.
So, the correct choice is C: The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots.
