Find the discriminant, describe the types of roots, and find the solution for 3x^2-24x+12

1 answer:

4 0

The discriminant of a polynomial is given by:
b ^ 2-4ac
Substituting the values we have:
(-24) ^ 2-4 * (3) * (12) = 432
Since the discriminator is greater than zero, then the roots are real.
x = (- b +/- root (b ^ 2-4ac)) / (2a)
Substituting the values:
x = (- (- 24) +/- root (432) / (2 * (3))
x = (- (- 24) +/- root (432) / (2 * (3))
x = (- (- 24) +/- root (144 * 3) / (2 * (3))
x = (24 +/- 12raiz (3) / (6)
x = 4 +/- 2raiz (3)
The roots are:
x1 = 4 + 2raiz (3)
x2 = 4 - 2raiz (3)
Answer:
432
the roots are real.
x1 = 4 + 2raiz (3)
x2 = 4 - 2raiz (3)

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

c(2) = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation says that the first term of the sequence is -20.

The second equation is saying that to find any term of the sequence, add 10 to the previous term.

c(2) = c(2-1) + 10

c(2) = c(1) + 10

c(2) = -20 + 10 = -10
