What is the value of the discriminant, b2 − 4ac, for the quadratic equation 0 = x2 − 4x + 5, and what does it mean about the num

ber of real solutions the equation has?
The discriminant is −4, so the equation has 2 real solutions.
The discriminant is −4, so the equation has no real solutions.
The discriminant is 35, so the equation has 2 real solutions.
The discriminant is 35, so the equation has no real solutions.

Answer:

The discriminant is −4, so the equation has no real solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation 0 = x² - 4x + 5, a is 1, b is -4, and c is 5.

Plug in these values into b² - 4ac, and simplify:

b² - 4ac

(-4)² - 4(1)(5)

16 - 20

= -4

So, the discriminant is -4. This means that the equation has no real solutions, because the discriminant is a negative number.

The correct answer is that The discriminant is −4, so the equation has no real solutions.

Answer:

Rise: 200.25

Descent 300.2

Minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A)        We are using the Pythagorean theorem for the climb and descent. (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

For climb a = 200, b = 10 c = ?

200^2 + 10^2 = c^2 = 40000 + 100 = c^2 = 40100 = c^2

c = about 200.25

For the descent: a = 300, b = 10

300²+10² = c²

90000 + 100 = c²

90100 = c²

c = about 300.2

B) If a plane is going 600 km/h and it goes about 10 km that means the plane is only going for 10/600 of an hour.

10/600 is 1/60, so only a couple minutes difference.

Dose Congruent Mean Having The Same Measure​
Julli [10]

So Congruent. Two figures are congruent if they have the same shape and size. Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure. Two figures are similar if they have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.

I hope that help u:)

What is the value of x? show work
Alona [7]
2x+38=180
2x=142 (or x+x=142 from which 2x=142)
x=71 

The unknown angles are each 71

You know this answer is logical as, since two sides are 21 it hints that we are looking at an equilateral triangle, which means two of its angles will be the same

explain why Shirley Chisholm was a political pioneer. __________________________________________________________________________
irga5000 [103]

Answer: She had already surprised everyone by becoming the first black woman in Congress after an upset victory in 1968. Then Shirley Chisholm signed up for work as a census taker in Brooklyn, where she represented a range of struggling neighborhoods.

It was a thankless task; many of the “enumerators” for the 1970 census quit because so many poor black and Hispanic residents refused to answer questions or even open the door.

Their distrust in government ran deep, The Times reported, with some fearing that giving up their personal information would lead to genocide.

Ms. Chisholm, a daughter of immigrants from Barbados who studied American history with the zeal of a woman determined to shape it, understood such sentiments. She also embodied what was needed to bring those New Yorkers into the fold. It wasn’t pontificating. It wasn’t condescending, or scolding; it required the same charm and resolve she showed first as an educator, then as a politician.

“I do not see myself as a lawmaker, an innovator in the field of legislation,” she wrote in her 1970 autobiography, “Unbought and Unbossed.” “America has the laws and the material resources it takes to insure justice for all its people. What it lacks is the heart, the humanity, the Christian love that it would take.”
