Answer:
the last answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>quadratic</em> equation 3 · x² + 7 · x - 2 = 0 has a <em>positive</em> discriminant. Thus, the expression has two <em>distinct real</em> roots (<em>real</em> and <em>irrational</em> roots).
<h3>How to determine the characteristics of the roots of a quadratic equation by discriminant</h3>
Herein we have a <em>quadratic</em> equation of the form a · x² + b · x + c = 0, whose discriminant is:
d = b² - 4 · a · c (1)
There are three possibilities:
- d < 0 - <em>conjugated complex</em> roots.
- d = 0 - <em>equal real</em> roots (real and rational root).
- d > 0 - <em>different real</em> roots (real and irrational root).
If we know that a = 3, b = 7 and c = - 2, then the discriminant is:
d = 7² - 4 · (3) · (- 2)
d = 49 + 24
d = 73
The <em>quadratic</em> equation 3 · x² + 7 · x - 2 = 0 has a <em>positive</em> discriminant. Thus, the expression has two <em>distinct real</em> roots (<em>real</em> and <em>irrational</em> roots).

I turn the mixed numbers into decimals before doing anything else.
11 2/5----> 57/5----> 11.4
4 2/7----> 30/7----> 4.29
2 1/7----> 15/7----> 2.14
11.4=q-4.29+2.14
11.4=q-2.15
13.55= q
13.55 converted to a fraction is 13 11⁄20
q=13 11⁄20
