X= 8
Wish you luck with your studying
Standard form
solve for y
y-4=x+8
add 4 to both sides
y=x+12
51 blue fish.
If there is 34 to 50 blue to red fish in tank A. Then tank B is 51 to 75. Because 75 is 1.5 times larger than 50 you have to multiply 34 by 1.5 to get 51.
Answer:
You did not post the options, but i will try to answer this in a general way.
Because we have two solutions, i know that we are talking about quadratic equations, of the form of:
0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c.
There are two easy ways to see if the solutions of this equation are real or not.
1) look at the graph, if the graph touches the x-axis, then we have real solutions (if the graph does not touch the x-axis, we have complex solutions).
2) look at the determinant.
The determinant of a quadratic equation is:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c.
if D > 0, we have two real solutions.
if D = 0, we have one real solution (or two real solutions that are equal)
if D < 0, we have two complex solutions.
