Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-1=3x-7

Add both sides by 7 to isolate 3x

-1+7=3x-7+7

6=3x

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x

6/3=3x/3

2=x

I hope this helps!

If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is equal to -8, which statement describes the roots?
Dovator [93]

Keywords

quadratic equation, discriminant, complex roots, real roots

we know that

The formula to calculate the <u>roots</u> of the <u>quadratic equation</u> of the form  ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

where

The <u>discriminant</u> of the <u>quadratic equation</u>  is equal to

b^{2}-4ac

if  (b^{2}-4ac)> 0 ----> the <u>quadratic equation</u> has two <u>real roots</u>

if  (b^{2}-4ac)=0 ----> the <u>quadratic equation</u> has one <u>real root</u>

if  (b^{2}-4ac)< 0 ----> the <u>quadratic equation</u> has two <u>complex roots</u>

in this problem we have that

the <u>discriminant</u> is equal to -8

so

the <u>quadratic equation</u> has two <u>complex roots</u>

therefore

the answer is the option A

There are two complex roots

Pratap puri Row 22 miles down a river in two hours but the return trip took him 5 1/2 hours find the rate pratap Control in Stil
Natalija [7]

Answer:

x= 7.5 mile/h

y= 3.5 miles / h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x and y

so, x+y = speed down river

and x-y= speed up river

using

travel time = distance / speed for each case;

we get;

22/x+y=2  ---(1)

and

22/x-y=5.5 -----(2)

Solving equations simultaneously

eq 1 gives

2x+2y=22  ---(3)

eq 2 gives

5.5x-5.5y=22 ----(4)

Multiply eq 3 by 2.75

==> 5.5x+5.5y=60.5 --- (5)

adding eq 4 with eq 5

==> 11x =82.5

==> x= 7.5 miles/h

put this value in eq 3

==> 2(7.5)+2y=22

==> 2y=22-19.8

==> 2y=7

==> y = 3.5
