The discriminante :
b^2-4ac
1^2 - 4 * -2 * -28 = 1 - 224 = -223
When the discriminant (b^2-4ac) is less than 0, the equation had no real solutions.
-223<0, so, 2x^2+x-28 = 0 has no real solutions.
Hope that helps :)
Answer:
There was a 5% change
Step-by-step explanation:
On Monday, the temperature was 80.
On Tuesday, the temp was 77
On Wednesday, the temp was 84
there was a difference of 4
4 is 5% of 80
Answer: 1) You forgot to change the sign over there. You have to subtract over there.
2) Just be careful while solving equations while changing the signs
Anyway
so the recursive rule tells the relationship between the previous term and the term we want to find
given
an=2n+11
it is clear that the first term is 13
2nd term is 15
3rd term is 17
each term increases by 2
so
a term is equal to the previous term plus 2
an=a(n-1)+2
the first one is the answer
