Hello!
In math, there is always something called the discriminant. This is represented by the equation
, when a quadratic =
. The discriminant tells you what roots an equation has. A discriminant of over 0 represents 2 real roots, a discriminant of 0 = 1 real root, and a discriminant of <0 is 0 real roots (2 complex roots)
Now, substitute in the values and solve. In this equation, a = 5, b = 2, c = 1.




Therefore, the discriminant is -16. This means that the equation has no real roots, and has 2 complex roots. Therefore, your answer is D.
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
the answ free points
(x+2)(2x-5)=56
2x^2-5x+4x-10=56
2x^2-x-10=56
2x^2-x-66=0
2x^2-12x+11x-66=0
2x(x-6)+11(x-6)=0
(2x+11)(x-6)=0, since x is a measurement x>0 so:
x=6cm
Answer:
-8+5√2 and -8-5√2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression x² + 16x + 14 = 0
USing the general formulas
x = -16±√16²-4(14)/2
x = -16±√256-56/2
x = -16±√200/2
x = -16±10√2/2
x = -8±5√2
Hence the required solutions are -8+5√2 and -8-5√2
