Answer:
discriminant =0
1 real root
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant is b^2 -4ac
when the equation is written in the form ax^2 +bx+c
f(x) = 3x^2 +24x+48
a = 3 b = 24 and c =48
discriminant = 24^2 - 4(3)*(48)
=576-576
=0
If the discriminant >0 we have 2 real roots
if discriminant = 0 we have 1 real root
if discriminant <0 we have 2 complex roots
The answer should be b¹². You add the exponents of each constant. In the case of the simple b the exponent would be one.
The rate of change is the slope...and in y = mx + b form, the slope is in the m position. So we need to put the equations in y = mx + b form.
A. 6x - 7y = 21
-7y = -6x + 21
y = 6/7x - 2....so the slope here is 6/7 or 0.857
B. y = 2x - 2....this is already in the form we need...the slope is 2
C. (2,7)(3,13)
slope = (13-7) /(3-2) = 6/1 or just 6
the slope with the greatest rate of change is gonna be the one with the highest slope......and that would be C.
