If the discriminant of a quadratic equation is equal to -8, which statement describes the roots?

Dovator [93]

Keywords

quadratic equation, discriminant, complex roots, real roots

we know that

The formula to calculate the roots of the quadratic equation of the form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$

where

The discriminant of the quadratic equation is equal to

$b^{2}-4ac$

if $(b^{2}-4ac)> 0$ ----> the quadratic equation has two real roots

if $(b^{2}-4ac)=0$ ----> the quadratic equation has one real root

if $(b^{2}-4ac)< 0$ ----> the quadratic equation has two complex roots

in this problem we have that

the discriminant is equal to $-8$

the quadratic equation has two complex roots

therefore

the answer is the option A

There are two complex roots

Identity the composite number represented by the prime factorization below

Korolek [52]

Answer:look below

Step-by-step explanation: The prime factorization of number is the break down into factors which are prime numbers (numbers without factors except 1 and itself). The factors 22 and 32 are composite numbers since they have more than 1 and itself as factors. They are not prime.

However, the factorization of 22 * 32 * 5 will equal a number. 22*32*5 = 3, 520. But it does not match the solutions given.

An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 59.5 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted t

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0124 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level to support the testing firm's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 59.5 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the actual MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is the same, that is:

$H_0: \mu = 59.5$

At the alternate hypothesis, we test that it is different, that is:

$H_a: \mu \neq 59.5$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

59.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 59.5$

After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 59.2. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.9.

This means that $n = 250, X = 59.2, \sigma = 1.9$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{59.2 - 59.5}{\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{250}}}$

$z = -2.5$

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of finding a mean that differs from 59.5 by at least 0.3, which is P(|Z|>-2.5), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of Z = -2.5.

Looking at the z-table, Z = -2.5 has a pvalue of 0.0062

2*0.0062 = 0.0124

The pvalue of the test is 0.0124 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level to support the testing firm's claim.
