Answer:

(a) 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive numbers are greater than negative ones.

Fractions with the same denominator are greater if their numerator is greater.

All of these fractions have the same denominator. Because 5 > 1 > -1 > -5, the ordering of the fractions is ...

5/6 > 1/6 > -1/6 > -5/6

The fraction with the greatest value is 5/6.

Use the discriminant to determine the number of solutions and types of solutions for the quadratic equation, below. Then answer

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

A. Discriminant = 116

B. Number of solutions for the quadratic equation = 2

C. Type of solutions (circle one):Imaginary

D. Type of solutions (circle one):irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

${x}^{2} + 8x = 13$

We rewrite in standard form to get;

${x}^{2} + 8x - 13 = 0$

The discriminant is

$D = {b}^{2} - 4ac$

where a=1, b=8, c=-13

We substitute to get:

$D = {8}^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times - 13$

$D = 64 + 52$

$D = 116$

Since the discriminant is great than zero, we have two distinct real roots
