To find the average rate of change, evaluate the function at the given points.
Evaluate the difference of the function at the given points.
Divide the difference of the function at the given points with the difference of the given points.
10x + 40 = 100
A restaurant owner sells each plate of rice for 10 dollars plus an additional 40 dollars for the entrance. Mack goes to that restaurant and pays 100 dollars in total. How much plates of rice did he order?<span />
First, you would multiply $210 by 20%
This is done by converting 20% to a decimal, .2
So, 210 • .2 = 42
Then to find the sale price, you would subtract that 42 that you just got from 210,
and you get $168 as the final sale price.
233 1/3
you start with .3x = 70, as this is the sentence given, solving for x.
divide both sides by .3, and you get x
Answer:
(a) There are two complex roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant of a quadratic function describes the nature of its roots:
- <u>negative</u>: two complex roots
- <u>zero</u>: one real root (multiplicity 2)
- <u>positive</u>: two distinct real roots.

Your discriminant of -8 is <em>negative</em>, so it indicates ...
There are two complex roots
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
We generally study polynomials with <em>real coefficients</em>. These will never have an odd number of complex roots. Their complex roots always come in conjugate pairs.
