For this case we have that by definition, a quadratic equation is of the form:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0

Its roots are given by:

x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}

By definition, the discriminant is given by:

D = b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)

According to the given equation we have to:

a = 5\\b = 3\\c = -5

Substituting:

D = 3 ^ 2-4 (5) (- 5)\\D = 9 + 100\\D = 109

Answer:

The discriminant is 109

What is 347,168 round to then thoudands
Finger [1]

Answer:

347,168 rounded to the nearest ten thousands would be 350,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

When rounding to the nearest ten thousands, you rely on the thousands place value to indicate whether to round up or down. 5 or higher give it a shove, 4 or less let it rest. 7 is in the thousands place meaning we round up. 4 is in the ten thousands place meaning it becomes 5. 347,168 rounded to the nearest ten thousands would be 350,000.
