Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic equation in standard form
ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the discriminant is
Δ = b² - 4ac
• If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real irrational roots
• If b² - 4ac > 0 and a perfect square then 2 real rational roots
• If b² - 4ac = 0 then 1 real double root
• If b² - 4ac < 0 then 2 complex roots
Given
x² + 3x - 7 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 1, b = 3, c = - 7 , then
b² - 4ac
= 3² - (4 × 1 × - 7) = 9 + 28 = 37
Since b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real irrational roots
Answer:
k=2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is the ratio of the amounts y and x:
k = y/x
Put another way: y = kx
Answer:
9.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the third side which is the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
7^2 + 6^2 = c^2
49 + 36 = c^2
85 = c^2
9.219 = C
So, the answer rounded to the nearest tenth would be: 9.2
