Which of the following is true of the discriminant for the graph below

Mathematics

aniked [119]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is used to determine the number and nature of the zeros of a quadratic. If the discriminant is positive and a perfect square, there are 2 rational zeros; if the discriminant is positive and not a perfect square, there are 2 rational complex zeros; if the discriminant is 0, there is 1 rational root; if the discriminant is negative, there are no real roots.

The roots/solutions/zeros of a quadratic are where the graph goes through the x axis. Those are the real zeros, even if they don't fall exactly on a number like 1 or 2 or 3; they can fall on 1.32, 4.35, etc. They are still real. If the graph doesn't go through the x-axis at all, the zeros are imaginary because the discriminant was negative and you can't take the square root of a negative number. As you can see on our graph, the parabola never goes through the x-axis. Therefore, the zeros are imaginary because the discriminant was negative. Choice C.  Get familiar with your discriminants and the nature of quadratic solutions. Your life will be much easier!

A jug contains 6 qt of killa kola. kyle drank 3/10 of the jug. how much did he drink
jekas [21]

Answer:

Kyle drank 1.8 quarts of the jug.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity that Kyle drank from the jug is to equivalent to the product of the volume of the jug and portion that Kyle used. That is:

V_{dr} = \frac{3}{10}\cdot V_{jug}

Where:

V_{dr} - Volume that Kyle drank, measured in quarts.

V_{jug} - Volume of the jug, measured in quarts.

If V_{max} = 6\,qt, the volume drank by Kyle is:

V_{dr} = \frac{3}{10}\cdot (6\,qt)

V_{dr} = 1.8\,qt

Kyle drank 1.8 quarts of the jug.

The value of x and y in both equations
Vlada [557]
There is no solution to this set that works for both equations. If you multiply the top equation by 2 and then add them together, the x and y numbers will cancel. This leaves you with 0 =1010, which is never true.

A football field measures 300 feet in length. It can also be expressed as approximately 5 7x 10miles. If the
kogti [31]

Answer:

The question is incomplete or there are details missing.

Step-by-step explanation:

From similar parameters, if by what they mean is that the football field measures 300feet in length, which is the dimension in length, this can also be in terms of metre.

The conversion factor between ft and metre is 1ft = 0.3048m

As such, we can only have variations or the length of the field measured may have ranges of measurement,  but as it is the length of the field can not be expressed in terms of miles, the most reasonable vale of n we can get will be the least measurement in metres.

Question If there are more than two numbers in a certain list, is each of the numbers in the list equal to 0
serg [7]

Answer: If the product of any two numbers in the list is equal to 0, you can't conclude that the list is composed only by zeroes. In fact, suppose that you have a list of N numbers which are all zeroes except one. Whenever you multiply two elements of this list, you either multiplies two zeroes, or you multiply the non-zero element by a zero element, and so the result is zero, but the list is not composed by zeroes only.

Step-by-step explanation:
