A)
The discriminant (radicand) is √(b^2-4ac), let us call this "d" for the discriminant.
If:
d<0, there are no real solutions (though there are two imaginary ones)
d=0, there is one real solution
d>0, there are two real solutions.
In this case, d=12^2-4(4)9
d=144-144
d=0
So there is one real solution.
B)
9x^2-30x+25=0
9x^2-15x-15x+25=0
3x(3x-5)-5(3x-5)=0
(3x-5)(3x-5)=0
(3x-5)^2=0
x=5/3
x=1 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
the numbers of the yellow and white counters
= 288- 38 = 250.
the ratio of yellow to white = 1:4
so,
the numbers of the yellow counters =
1/(1+4) × 250 =1/5 ×250 = 50
the numbers of the white counters =
4/(1+4) ×250 = 4/5 ×250 = 200
and the numbers of the red counters = 38
