For the equation:
-1=5 x^2 - 2 x
5 x^2 - 2 x + 1 = 0, then we substitute: a=5, b=-2, c =1
to discriminant formula: D= b^2 - 4 a c = (-2)^2 - 4 * 5 * 1 = 4 - 20 = - 16
Answer:
The discriminant is equal to -16 which means the equation has no real number solutions.
So you already know the difference between the new number and original number, so all you have to do now is plug it in to this: Percentage Change=Difference/Original Number x100. So 17.99/257=.07x100 which equals 7%. So B is the correct answer.
30 miles is two-thirds of x (where x is the total distance)
<span>30 = (2/3)*x </span>
<span>30*3 = 2x
</span><span><span>90 = 2x
90/2 = x
45 = x
x = 45
The total length of his drive is 45 miles</span><span>

The answer for this question would be choice A) 0.357 or the first option because 5/14 made into a decimal number would be 0.357143 and i got that answer by dividing 5 and 14, but u said round to nearest thousandth, so now we have the result we still have to round it and 0.357143 rounded to the nearest thousandth would be 0.357.
