The graph of an equation with a negative discriminant always has which characteristic?

Mathematics
1 answer:
spin [16.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The graph does not intercept the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

When the discriminant is positive, it means that in the quadratic equation, you <em>can</em> take the square root of this number and end up with two distinct solutions, one negative and one positive. The graph will intercept the x-axis twice.

When the discriminant is zero, it means that you won't be taking the square root of any number in the quadratic equation and you'll end up with two solutions that are equal, or just one distinct solution. The graph will intercept the x-axis once.

When the discriminant is negative, it means that the quadratic has no real solutions, meaning that it does not intercept the x-axis. It is impossible to take the square root of a negative number.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

r = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for r, plug in the change in x values and change in y values, since the hypotenuse is simply the diagonal of both the y-coordinate and x-coordinates shown via drawing legs on the vertical and horizontal axis. So, since (0,0) is the initial point, r = sqr[(-4-0)^2 + (-3-0)^2 = sqr(16 + 9) = 5.

Now, the angle theta is the angle in which the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios are found. Simply use opposite over hypotenuse for sine, adjacent over hypotenuse for cosine, and opposite over adjacent for tangent using theta as the angle in which these values are obtained.

Answer:

1)The mass of water increases.

2) Freezing point of water decreases.

3) buoyancy of objects in the water increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salinity in the oceanic water is attributed by the water coming from other sources like rivers carrying rocks and soil containing salt. Salinity decreases the temperature of water, making it cold and more denser. The cold water settles at the bottom of the ocean. It flows across the oceanic basins as slow currents. The objects being less in density flows over the surface of water. Hence,buoyancy of objects in water increases.

Kevin has 5 times more baseball cards than his brother, Billy. If Billy has c number of cards, how many cards does Kevin have
mylen [45]
The answer would be 5*C or 5C or 5(C) they all mean the same exact thing but if Kevin has 5 times as much no matter what billy has you’ll have to multiply that by 5 to see how much Kevin’s has so if billy has c then you multiply that by 5
