Answer:
A. 2 distinct roots.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2 + 8x + 3 = 0
Finding the discriminant:
b^2 - 4ac = 8^2 - 4 * 2 * 3
= 64 - 24
= 40
The discriminant is positive but not a perfect square
So there are 2 distinct ,real, irrational roots.
Answer:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Because I’m right anywhere
Area = (x - 5)(x – 7)
Area = x(x - 7) - 5(x - 7)
Area = x^2 -7x -5x + 35
Area = x^2 -12x + 35
algebraic expression that represents its area: x^2 -12x + 35
x^2 - 12x + 35 = 195
x^2 - 12x + 35 - 195 = 0
x^2 - 12x - 160 = 0
x^2 - 8x - 20x - 160 = 0
x (x + 8) - 20 (x + 8) = 0
(x + 8) (x - 20) = 0
(x + 8) = 0
(x - 20) = 0
x = - 8 (not a solution)
x = 20
hence,
length = x - 5
length = 20 - 5
length = 15 m
width = x - 7
width = 20 - 7
width = 13 m
perimeter = 2(13) + 2(15)
perimeter = 26 + 30
perimeter = 56 m²
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
(1 * x) + (4 * x) = 50
x + 4x = 50
5x = 50
x = 50/5
= 10
So from the above deduction, we get the common ratio to be equal to 10
Then
The smallest number = 1 * x
= 1 * 10
= 10
The difference between your speed is 6 miles per hour: that means that every hour you move 6 miles relative to your friend. But you only need to catch up 3 miles: half of it. So you'll catch up after 30 minutes.
