Step-by-step explanation:

For a quadratic equation to have no real roots, the discriminant b² - 4ac must be negative.

For px² + 8x + 2 = 0,

We have a = p, b = 8 and c = 2.

=> (8)² - 4(p)(2) < 0

=> 64 - 8p < 0

=> 8p > 64

=> p > 8

Hence the range for p is p > 8.

PLEASE HELP ME Use the function below to find f(2). f(x) = 1/3 x 4^x

Anna71 [15]

f(2) This means that x is 2, so you plug in 2 for x in the equation

$f(x)=\frac{1}{3} (4^x)$

$f(2)=\frac{1}{3}(4^2)$

$f(2)=\frac{1}{3} (16)$

$f(2)=\frac{16}{3}$

Your answer is D

Through: (6, 2), perpendicular to y = -x-5 in slope intercept form

True [87]

Answer:

y = x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x-5

Slope of line is -1.

Slope of perpendicular to line is 1.

Point-slope equation for line of slope 1 that passes through (6,2):

y-2 = 1(x-6)

Rearrange equation to slope-intercept form:

y = 1(x-6) + 2

y = x-4
