Remember, percent is always out of 100. If you have 22%, you have 22 people per every 100 people, or, 22/100.
22/100 is the incomplete answer because it needs to be simplified. If you divide both numbers by two you get 11/50 which is the lowest fraction you can have because 11 is a prime number.
The answer is c because it makes the most sense
Answer:
Her oldest was 9, and the other 2 were 2
If x^2+bx+16 has at least one real root, then the equation x^2+bx+16=0 has at least one solution. The discriminant of a quadratic equation is b^2-4ac and it determines the nature of the roots. If the discriminant is zero, there is exactly one distinct real root. If the discriminant is positive, there are exactly two roots. The discriminant of <span>x^2+bx+16=0 is b^2-4(1)(16). The inequality here gives the values of b where the discriminant will be positive or zero:
b^2-4(1)(16) ≥ 0
</span><span>b^2-64 ≥ 0
(b+8)(b-8) </span><span>≥ 0
The answer is that all possible values of b are in the interval (-inf, -8]∪[8,inf) because those are the intervals where </span>(b+8)(b-8) is positive.
