Remember the quadratic formula determinant?
If b^2 -4ac < 0, a complex root exists.
So for this problem, m^2 - 4q is the determinant, and if less than 0, is complex.
So a=-m/2 and b=(1/2)SQRT(m^2 - 4q)
Answer:
if I'm not wrong it should be the second answer choice
Answer:
The slope is
. The slope means that the amount of money in the account is decreasing at a rate of $
every week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given coordinates are
We need to find the slope of the graph, and explain what does slope means for this graph.
The formula for computing slope
is
Where
and
are the point on the line.
Let us plug points
in the equation
Here, the negative sign of slope
represents that the value of the function (budget) is decreasing, with an increase in time (week).
The slope is
. The slope means that the amount of money in the account is decreasing at a rate of $
every week.
Properly formula based step solved
4-1/2x=10
-1/2x=6
3
so your answer would be B
